The official Starwars.com site has been redesigned
with a bunch more Episode 2 stuff. I personally liked the old style better, but on the other hand
all the new stuff on it is really interesting. Too bad it'll be one more whole year before the movie
is released.
Open-Source soft drinks, who would
have thunk it. Yes, now the open source license of letting others tinker with what you made in an
attmept to make it better has been expanded to cola. So if you can come up with a better recipe, then you can say you
contributed to making the world a better place to drink.
I just finished reading Orsen Scott Card's incredible book Ender's Shadow. It's a quasi-sequal to
the famous Ender's Game (which is actually better IMHO),
but not a true sequel since the story in Ender's Shadow takes place parallel to Ender's Game, just
from another viewpoint. However it definitly helps to read Ender's Game first. Anyway, for those who
haven't read the book, it's a really interesting science fiction piece about little children who are
trained to be commanders in a war against an alien civilization. It's extremelly well written and
will keep you thinking about war, humanity, strategy, and how the heck these little 6 year olds can
come up with such radical ideas.
