Well, I’ve been diving into MediaWiki at work trying to do some crash immersion and I’ll have to say that I’m pretty irritated at the documentation out there. I’m not really sure who to blame on this though. In short I wanted to create a portal, so I went about looking for guides. Mayny of the guides appear to just reprint the Wikipedia documentation.

Well… that would be great if the Wikipedia documentation didn’t rest upon the existence of dozens of layers of templates to work the way they instruct.

This effectively makes the documentation useless for all installs of MediaWiki since they don’t come pre-installed with all of that very same documentation.

Sigh… I did just find a site today that might be promising called WikiUniversity, but it’s going to take me a few days to see what it’s got.

So I finally get this blog started and now I’m too busy to write the content I was hoping to run on it. =P

Oh well, it’ll come around eventually.

Over on the Game Zero site I have updated my Nintendo’s hardware release record page to address the announcement of the DSi in Japan. In short the DSi is a DS variant with bigger screen, SD card support, 0.3 megapixel camera, drop GBA support and improved audio to name the major items.

Overall it looks pretty cool, although it’s a bummer seeing the GBA support dropped… then again how many people are really using it? For myself I still prefer to fire up GB, GBC and GBA games on the GameBoy Player for the Game Cube… to bad we don’t have a player for the Wii. That would be an unrealistic but awesome expansion module.

In order of preference (this is really dependent on when you asking me… but for today):

Signals

Moving Pictures

Grace Under Pressure

Oddly enough all of them are associated in my mind with key parts of teenage years.

Well, not much of a big start here but alteast I have the blog installed and mostly configured.

If you’ve already found me, welcome.

I’ll be using this space to talk about gaming, tech, and personal thoughts… like about 5 billion other blogs.

So, maybe you’ll find something interesting and stick around.

Cheers!
