I wrote a quick post at The Rift Arcade about the game Pollen from Minefield Games. Check it out here. This one is built with Unity, so it’s even closer to my heart. I love what will be possible with VR and AR tech in the coming years, and have been playing with different projects for…

Originally published on RiftArcade.com Ok, that title was terrible, predictable, and probably will be done over and over when this game is released, so at least I got in early. The point is, this title is showing great potential for an experience that will show off what Oculus Rift and VR can be. Since this…

Are you familiar with the story of George Washington and the cherry tree? It is heralded as a triumph of honesty and integrity, and supposedly pointed to his destiny as our country’s first president. What you don’t know is the rest of the story. The real story of what happened. It’s still a story of…

It’s been a busy week around the homestead. Or beyond the homestead really. Down to the south 40 in the grand ole city of Austin, Texas for a week long company retreat. Why, you may ask? With a company full of consultants scattered all around the country, getting everyone together for a few days a…

Starting off this year with a smooth warm up of variety. I was still recovering from illness through the New Years Day football, but was able to watch a great match between Tottenham and Chelsea.

It’s the end and beginning of yet another year, and not to seem non creative, but it’s time yet again to reflect and plan on appropriate sides of this annual stick in the ground. First, for the reflecting. This year has been a definite upswing over the last few. Family healthy LilF changing from elementary…

This has been driving me crazy for a while. I have several blogs that I run and work on to varying degrees. I noticed one day that when I try to share a post through LinkedIn, none of the image and meta data would come in. I would only get the blog name. When I…

Thankfully, the mood on board has lifted a bit. Most have accepted that we can only wait out the storm and then rebuild after. Some are taking it worse than others, but we are pulling together and will get through. Other developments and updates: The last hold out in the “I would never eat a…

I swear people do this shit just to be annoying. Let’s have open document types so that we can all communicate, but I have my own open document format that not everybody can read. The point is, if you need to open a .XPS file on a Mac, use your Gmail account (or someone elses)…
