New games, 2/25/05

It’s been awhile since I got any new games because I’ve been busy. Nevertheless, you have to play games else life will get boring ;):

Cold Fear (not yet rated)
FIFA Street (6.7 ouch)
MVP Baseball 2005 (not yet rated)
Winning Eleven 8 (9.3)

All of these games look pretty cool, so I’ll have to check them out this weekend.

acm.up.edu website in progress

I am currently working on the University of Portland Association for Computing Machinery website. It’s a wordpress 1.5 blog, just like this one, but I have a few people working with me, so it will look much better (hopefully).

Google coming to Oregon!

According to Bend.com and numerous other sources,

The Mountain View, California based company has paid $1.87 million for 30 acres of industrial-zoned land at the Port of The Dalles and they have the option to purchase three other parcels of land.

The Dalles is only about an hour and a half drive from me, see here for a map. Google would be a VERY nice company to work for. Unfortunately they offer jobs in fields with which I have very little experience. But when the time comes nearer, I will definitely want to be applying for one of these positions.

Changes

I’ve been making a number of changes on this website. Instead of trying to make the old classic themes for wordpress 1.2 work with the current version, I’ve decided to pursue modern themes that were designed for WP1.5 (current version).

I was particularly impressed with Theron Parlin’s selection (4 currently). I chose “Conestoga Street” because I thought it looked pretty slick. I’m not done editing the style of it yet, but I’ll get around to it soon.
