I figured I try out this whole blogging deal, more of a way for me to clarify my thoughts than for others to read. I'm not sure how long it will last, or what it will have on it. If I like it then it may go on for a long time, or I may have sudden spurts of blogging followed by months of silence. Also the title is just a placeholder until I determine what the blog is about, as of right now I have no idea what I will be compelled to write about.
But enough about me and my blog, here is some actual content for it. Recently I've been stuck with a lack of motivation to program. (I program tools for the game Driver: You Are The Wheelman.) During which I usually browse the internet aimlessly, but I've been coming across some interesting stuff for motivating me. One is the blog for Frictional Games. Looking through it there is a lot of good insight into what the purpose of games are, and what direction gaming is headed in along with how Frictional Games makes their games. It's a lot more interesting than I can describe (if you like such discussions), so look around and see for yourself. One other thing I found was a video by Stephen Fry, called What I Wish I'd Known at 18. It's long, but was worth watching.
Perhaps one day this blog will find a purpose and become more refined, but for today it's just some ramblings of mine.
