It's TAX DAY!!!!!!!

Nintendorks is back up!!!!! After months and months of being down, it has finally surfaced again, with the full relaunch to take place within 11 days. Woo Hoo! However there is some sad news in all this: The Nintendork t-shirt is no more. Since they were down they couldn't get the number of orders they needed to get the t-shirts, so hence there are none to buy. Why oh why do bad things happen to good websites?

Sunday Times Magazine has an excellent article (which is no longer up) on the gradual invasion of privacy that the UK government, along with other governments across the world, are doing. It makes mention of networked TV camera's in every building becoming the "fifth utility" after water, gas, electricity, and phone. And even in America we have the DEA buying passenger information from Amtrack. Guess that unwarrented searches thing in our Constitution can be ignored.

Nintendo has announced their 25 million dollar marketing campaign for the Gameboy Advance, set to be launched on June 11th. It's amazing to read all the things they have planned to push the GBA. I know I sure as heck will be buying one!
