First things first, this is not a guide about how to handle corpses. This is a guide about how to run a Health Games Challenge site based upon the lessons learned by the Pittsburgh IGDA chapter. It's called a post-mortem because that's what we call detailed case studies in our ...

I'm not going to write about why you should support Kim's Race for the Cure or even how this event ...

Finally back in Pittsburgh this week since I'm scheduled to give a talk about "Charity Fundraising in Social Games" for the local game developers association this Thursday evening at the Beehive. Which reminded me that I should finally get around to summarizing all the talks, panels, and speaking engagements I've ...

So this email news update for our local International Game Developers Association chapter might be syndicated on our blog. I'm just testing to see if we can basically cut and paste our email without having to reformat anything. Looks like yes. Also, I've gotten lazy yet again about updating my ...

Since some of the people who still read this semi-abandoned blog (or at least still subscribe to its RSS feed) have sent me emails inquiring "Where the hell are you?" (direct quote from, master of subtlety, Woycheck). FYI, for those of you who are still curious, I'm currently in Chengdu, ...

This sort of last-minute announcement is probably better suited for Twitter, but I still have 20 more days until my annual twitter post on the 30th. So hopefully this short blog post will be sufficient to get the masses all atwitter.
At 7:30 PM, I'll be giving a short talk at ...

Next week, I'll be ...

So last Saturday, despite the bitter cold, I dropped by a MyHome2.0 Block Party that Jim and Lloyd invited me to. Above is a roughly edited video of the event (uploaded using YouTube's new Multi-Video Uploader, hooray for the increase from 100 mb to 1 gig!) and you can find ...

Last night I went to two very well-attended geeky events celebrating simultaneous momentous occasions. Yesterday was Pittsburgh Bloggers' third birthday and the birth of DevHouse Pittsburgh.
While our celebratory cake was not quite as geeky as the one pictured above, the room was packed and we even had some new faces ...

Hope everyone had a fun and spooky Halloween. Speaking of scary things, let's talk about how many new businesses and startups operate without qualified legal council or advice (smooth segue, right?).
It's been on my mind recently since attending Whitney Hoffman's excellent "Legal and Logistical Advice for your Startup" session at ...
