After about a year or so of not owning my own website, I finally purchased my own webspace again. I don’t know if I’ll be copying over my old posts or not.

M is for Massive
Scientific Ninja has a post about how the term MMORPG is a little overused by hobbyist developers. It’s a good read.
Paint Wars
I was listening to “.NET Rocks” show #414 this morning and there was an interview with Chris Marinos. While in college he wrote an Xna game that uses the WiiMote as an input device. He’s recently ported the code to F#. It sounded really interesting so go check it out.
One thing that was said in the interview that I didn’t really agree with though, Xna was said to be able to “run Xbox 360 games on your PC”. This isn’t right and it portrays Xna in the wrong way to me. Xna is Microsoft’s managed DirectX solution. Although it is right now geared more toward the game community, it can still be used for other purposes.
XNExtensions
Nick Gravelyn has released an open source set of C# extension methods for use with Xna. See the post here for more information.
