Your Story
Friday, 24th October 2008

We return from our 14 day hiatus that embed our online workspace with other priorities. Don't get us wrong, we still cherish this piece of the internet we own, but there is other that takes your attention. But material has been gaining during this short period and one result of that gathered material can be seen in today's comic.

Microsoft's latest marketing campaign, along side with the rather moronic Seinfeld commercials, is "I'm a PC". They target... well, PC owners. The campaign may be slightly innovative, but a paradox occurs, since from the beginning of computer technology, the PC stood for - Personal Computer. And Apple sells personal computers as well, yet they are officially and very much strictly tagged Macs. So the PC consequentially becomes a Microsoft bearing computer tag, which eradicates the existence for Linux. Somewhat pleasing for me, but nevertheless, ridiculous. But overall they do have a point, it's just that it's execution is not really that strong. You can sign up and upload your photo on the campaign's site with the appropriate personal comment on what makes you so unique for using a PC. I've read quite a few comments and they don't really capture the dark essence of what men use their PC for as well. Hell, women have been found at least experimenting, if you understand towards what I'm aiming.

Extra Life officially ended last Saturday, but unfortunately I was occupied to indulge on my marathon. The money has been donated from our side, but I still have the need to actually perform the event. Luckily tomorrow there will be another marathon day, approved officially from Sarcastic Gamer, so I'll be attending that one. There will most likely be some sort of a live feed from me, Xavier will be attending some business trip, so you won't hear from him for a week. My main focus will be the blog I have on Gamespot, and any media/material will be directed directly from there to this site, in the projects section and perhaps even on the main. I'll try to coordinate some comic production, since I have to take in mind that this week should be a Halloween themed week for the comic, but I'll make up my mind later on. I start my marathon 9 am tomorrow, in my local time. And game for 24 bloody hours.

I am exited though.
