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.

Just got back, was like a marathon there, lot of shooting the shit. The train I speak of is BART, it runs throughout the east bay and goes under the bay via the trans-bay tube into san francisco where it basically follows market street and heads to the san francisco airport. It's the only way to commute into the city, believe me. Going over bridges is slow and expensive. Lusetti, I used to be close to livermore but we moved a year ago. It's about 40 miles one way to livermore now for me but I wouldn't say that's beyond my commute radius, it's a straight shot down 680 so it's easy enough to get too it's just traffic that bogs things down. Going on 16 months unemployment, i'd drive to the next state for a job at this point :)
