Incidentally, if you're someone looking to break into the games industry, GDC is a great place to get an idea of what being a professional developer is all about. The focus is on developers and development (as opposed to publishing and business, which E3 focuses on). I believe about 10,000 developers attend annually. --matt |

Will the janitor of TechTV be there to once again proclaim "Achaea is the #1 mud on the 'net." as the mudconnector.com ad used to proclaim? Maybe I'll fly out there to get a quote to use from him too if he is!

Isn't it difficult to be so bitter all the time? I'd find it exhausting myself.
