ON HIATUS

Taking a two week break from the blog / news etc.  A few blogs ago I talked about a possible lead on a job ending my 16 month unemployment run, longest i've ever been unemployed.  Anyway it's not a permanent gig, they're bringing me on for two weeks as a contractor and will renew for two weeks at the end of each two week period until they decide to make a permanent offer or fill the position with recruiting someone else.  So basically I need to be totally focused , no screwing around at work   And we'll see what happens from there.  I'll probably adjust to doing the blog in the evenings for the next little while instead of the morning.

Anyway off to 'work' tomorrow, i have to get up at the ungodly hour of 5:30am... who the hell gets up at 5:30?  It's inhumane !

interview !

No gaming news, just have 10 minutes before I need to get on the train to the city for a job interview.  A former co-worker of mine is an IT Manager at a company and he's leaving to go to another company.  So he's talked me up to management and he's bringing me in for a meet and greet.  Assuming i don't blow the interview, i'll probably be starting monday as a full time contractor to start and do some training for two weeks until my co-worker leaves, then his seat will be mine.  Then i'll officially be the fill in IT Manager but hopefully since my foot is in the door already, i can convince them to bring me on full time and that would be killer.

Playing videogames all day was fun for a while but i'm really bored of it

 

GDC 2010 is on right now so when i get back from the interviews i'll do an updated blog with the latest news.  Right now I see Windows Mobile 7 will be tied into Live and contain 200 gamerscore points worth of achievements just like XBLA games.  I'm in the market for a new phone, might have to check out WinMo7 now with it's live integration and I'm hoping xbla games can also be run on WinMo7, that would really make me want to buy more xbla titles.  I think xbla titles suit mobile gaming better than couch gaming for the most part and how sick would it be if it has xbox live integration for mobile multiplayer gaming?  Sick.
