This Weeks Linkies - Now a Regular Segment!

June 13, 2007

G’day people thanks for tuning in. Its been a while since I’ve written something not related to anything. In the next few days I’ll probably put out something about how my personal life is actually going but until then we have: This weeks linkies.I’ve decided to turn this into a regular segment which I shall try to post bi-weekly. And as its a regular segment now it deserves its own header. Okay lets get into it.

I’ve been saving this one up for a while now. Its a link to an IGN article about a photoshoot with all of the Tomb Raider models. That is models that have cosplayed(I guess) as Lara Croft. For some reason they are suited up in the typical Lara Croft get up. But it makes for a good link anyways. So check it out.

Talking about Tomb Raider, GameTrailers has had a few good video reviews recently including Tomb Raider Anniversary Edition, Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree and Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. I love video reviews. Screw Attack also have a bunch of new stuff out as well. So check them out.

My brother has also linked me to a site which scans your last.fm account and ranks your mainstream level. Out of my friends on last.fm I was the most mainstream. I’m not really sure if thats a negative or positive thing actually, not sure.

Apple has also released a beta version of their internet browser; Safari for Windows platforms. You can get it for yourself here. Unfortunately when I loaded my Safari up this problem occurred:

I’m not sure what is going on, the language is totally messed up and there was something in the search box as well. Damn, looks like I am stuck with Opera. Oh well.

I’ve been catching up on some old feeds from a blog that I read about the problems in China. I had to cycle thru 106 feeds but I can thankfully say that I am thru them all. I just want to point out one post about censorship on blogging in China. Take a read.

I’ve been on the search for retro video game blogs this week as I have a thirst for all things old school gaming. I can’t stop playing the old titles, they are just so great. On my search for blogging goodness I stumbled upon an excellent blog. Initially I didn’t think much of the site, the design is rather basic and it looks a little drab but the posts are of excellent content. Proving the theory that content is king. Anyways if you are like me and need some nostalgia then take a look.

This week I have been working on setting up accounts for 2 social network sites, they are flickr and FaceBook. So far I am pretty happy with how I am going. If you have an acount with these servies then feel free to add me or whatever.

As a final closing note I would like to plug a blogging buddy of mine Alun Lower whom is now a reviews editor for the website; N-Galaxy. Congrats buddy. You may have also noticed that he’s blog Virtua Blogger is now on my blogroll. It’s always good to do some link exchanging.

Anyways, that concludes ‘This weeks linkies’. Thanks for reading. Be sure to give me a heads up in the comment box if you found any of these links useful or if you have the same annoying problem in Safari as myself.

Stealing my links again I see.

Having Safari on Windows seems a bit silly to me. I personally can’t stand it on Mac so I don’t really care about it being on Windows.

Is a good article about it that I found on Digg about Safari for Windows. You should report your bug to Apple since I believe that Safari is currently only in Beta.
