JOTW – Three lead programmers of Google decide to jump ship and apply at Yahoo. They tell Yahoo they have the ability to recapture the #1 search engine spot for Yahoo. Yahoo calls one of the programmers in and after 20 minutes, he walks out of the office all distraught. The other programmer turn to him and ask “What did they say?”.

Well, this week I started getting everything in order. The packing is going pretty well as I did almost nothing yet… Kidding. I packed away all the promotional and review items, then started getting all the computer stuff straightened out.

However, it’s tough to pack computers when new ones are coming in. It’s a startup side project that I am working on where we are looking for older – yet still useful computers. We need older P4’s at least 1.8 Ghz in speed if you have any lying around. Dell machines preferred because of their ability to turn on at certain times.

Otherwise, it’s been a pretty laid back week. Podcast went well. Been talking to a new sponsor that could bring more to the video section. If you haven’t checked it out, I recreated the Duke Nukem character on Bitstrips. I did a full video demonstration and shortened it to 7 minutes for easy watching. Backing music is by a band called “Sunspot”, friends of mine that do “Punk Arena Rock”.

Last week we kept running into server issues. I am hoping we fixed all the errors, but I am still keeping an eye on things. If all is well, then we will be working on a new site in the portal. It will be exciting to see this site come up for I will have nothing to do with it after it’s creation.

If you want to blog about something, let me know. I’ll put you into the portal.

We are going to run a contest in June – keep your eyes and ears peeled for more information.

That’s all for now. Hope you have a great week and we’ll see you for the Week in Tech History on Monday.

Here is what we’re talking about in TWITH.

For the last ten years, Duke Nukem has been promising “Duke Nukem Forever” - the sequel to the 3D first player game. Now it looks like the game has finally grown some legs. Does this show that Vaporware can possibly become reality?

The long awaited sequel started back in 1997. Using the Quake II Engine – basically a licensed program within the game itself which runs the 3-D realm – the game was going to continue the saga between Nukem and Dr. Proton – Nukems’ original arch nemesis. The plan was to release the game by 1998.
