So I finally launched my pet project this morning, HomesickFan.com. I’d like it to be a comprehensive index of sports bars for out of town fans. In theory I’ll be able to put up some adsense, stubhub, ebay links and make a little coin too. Check it out, let me know what you think.

Also, I used amazon mechanical turk to gather the information, very cool application.

Angela, being the great lady friend she is, bought me the Godfather for the wii for my Birthday. Myelf, being the lazy sloth I’m known to be, didnt play it for a month, instead spending time trying to rewrite the sabres season on NHL 2007 and playing with the xbox live arcade (plus some online card game for money, lots of that). Anyway, I finally started playing it this weekend and fell in love with it. I only casually played the GTA series (mainly I lived vicariously through Berg’s attempt to virtually drive & crash cars), but this game has me. The mash of GTA style missions and large 3D world coupled with the movie’s storyline is a great mix, and the wiimote controls are great (simulated baseball bat, strangling, thowing corrupt police off the roof, all great stuff). If you have a chance, i highly recommend the game.
