You can play with just your friends where you can send any of four preloaded textual taunts through the four directions on the D-pad, or you can play with any random people from around the world. To protect the little kids they did have to sacrifice a bit of opportunity for a strong Smash Bros based gaming community by blocking any form of communication between random opponents, including names.

I just loaded up my Google Reader this morning and to my delight there was a search field at the top of the window. Google’s specialty on the web was originally search, and still is, so why wouldn’t they have a search option in their feed reader? Nobody could understand and many were frustrated, but now it’s all changed. Many of you will already know since you’ll probably be reading this in Google Reader anyway. Just in case you didn’t know, take a glance up though. It’s pretty nifty.
And for those of you not using Google Reader, or not even using feeds yet here’s a quick explanation that will hopefully convince you of their usefulness.
I found this awesome site with that posts random hacks: Tutorial Ninjas, and as I was reading through the various posts I came across their explanation of why PS3s are worthy of more credit than they are given. You know I’ve never put much faith in the PS3’s value, but after reading this post I just about had to change my mind. It doesn’t make me want to run out and get one now, but at least I can admit, yeah, maybe I will get one someday, once I have a TV screen to make a PS3 proud.
