You might consider offering pronunciation guides with some of these. I was briefly confused at BlogathonATX when someone told me they "participate in 'mimis' on Fridays." When I asked what mimis are, she said "Oh, you know, funny cats and stuff." :)
While Dell Corporation may "officially" support and advocate women working in technology fields, the truth is that in the corporate trenches, Mr. Christensen's comments are pretty much spot on: just as his attitude is reflected in the trenches of many other companies. From Lady Ada Lovelace to the young woman just beginning her career at the help desk, too many women have had and must battle these overt and covert mysogynistic viewpoints. Sadly, my personal experiences working in the technology field lead me to a lack of any surprise over Dell's failure to sufficiently address Mr. Christensen's sexist monologue.
Apparently Dell has no more respect for Google+ than they do for women, they think it's the best place to hide their non-apology.
So it's Frogger with crappier graphics...
Thanks for the article Omar - if anyone has any further questions, feel free to direct them my way in a comment, or via email: austin [at] clay (dot) io
Ooooh, all the cool "tech" will definitely get the sleepy heads to vote for Lee because it's "cool." The awake shall vote for Dafoe because he's not a career politician and will definitely shake up the status quo. We just need to hope more than 3% of the registered voters in this city turn out to vote!
Yes, how strange, given that THIS IS A TECHNOLOGY BLOG.
"Leffingwell campaign uses augmented reality on late-campaign mailer"
For a second there in the Google search I thought this might be a new article making a reasonable judgement call on Leffingwell's low truth threshold in handling of the facts in his campaign...
Oh, but I forgot, it's jut some new wiz-bang, technology gimmickry...
Lotta wiz-bang gimmickry for an unhealthy cranky politician who has little substance to his campaign, about to get pushed into an extra month of runoff election.
You young "studs" and "flirts" can enjoy texting intimacy will I enjoy physical intimacy with my gal. Have a good day!
The game should be launched earlier like this month in May.I can't wait that long because I want to play the game really bad but I want you guys to finish the whole game so everybody will like it,but I really,really,really want to play it.So launch it in May or the start of June.
Thanks for this, Omar. I had no idea this was even a thing.
It looks so quaint and historic. Game boxes on the walls for sale. A visa emblem (who does that?). And many klunky electronic boxes. Too much clutter on the tables.
I believe that this will be a suscessful game just like wizard101 has been, go Kingsisle!
I like this idea, i was really sad/mad about why worlds in wizard101 was coming out so slow of course i knew KI was busy (as always) but this really explains it, i never though KI would come out with a new GAME i was thinking they were going to try to get people to come back to w101 with a new world or item or pet or something but now P101 is gonna take off, this is gonna be awesome i expect after Zafaria, Avalon, probably Polaris and the last world (idk Emperion that world that Prof. Drake mentioned or some other world idk?) then i guess KI will bring this out, cool, i wonder what is going to be in this game, My hope is that when your traveling in your custom made ship or what ever thing we are going to be riding in that there isnt so much "Travel to somethin somethin" and more going there because i hate traveling down a path and all of a sudden your going into the next zone i would like it that its all one zone and you can travel without any skips or porting to the next location like w101 thats my only thing i want different, i also wonder if there is gonna be spells since we wont be wizards, i wonder what fighting attack we are going to do, and i hope the Fighting circle thing will stay and all the same buttons and icons in P101 like W101 anyway Good Job KI keep up the good work and i cant wait for Pirates101, Nolan T
It is just so sad. Compared to an Apple Store. Or just sad in itself.
There's no release date set yet.
This sounds even better to me! My boys love playing Wizard101 but I would be willing to play a pirate themed game with them. I don't see any release date though?
Here's an update on story commenting that was published in February: http://www.statesman.com/blogs/content/shared-gen/blogs/austin/austin/entries/2012/02/02/update_on_story_commenting_on.html
I really do not like this idea, sorry. I like wizard101.. you should put more effort into ONE game instead of TWO..
