I have to ask: are these bags comfortable? You have a ton of stuff in that bag, so I have to wonder if it's killing you.

Otherwise, they sound awesome.

A third for Jessica's comment. Love the letters in this one, love the dinosaur in the other one.

I'm actually really excited about this. Perhaps it'll come out in Canada and be affordable!

Cool stuff Matt!

I, too, have noticed that white teas have very little in the form of taste. I guess that's why they're known as being so mild.

Hope you enjoy your next cups!

Re: 14 Abandoned Game Franchises that Need to Make a Comeback

Well, I guess they didn't add Duke Nukem because of the promise that Duke Nukem Forever is still being worked on. They released screenshots a few weeks back, so it is in production. Who knows how long it'll take?

As for these series... to tell you the truth, I haven't played many of them. I'd say that a lot of them are better off staying where they are - in our memories - as so many of them are classics. I think it's really okay to let these series' go because they're complete instead of trying to wring them dry for more profit.

Case in point: Bioshock. That game was a masterpiece. I don't want a sequel, prequel, or whatever they have planned. I don't want to go back to Rapture. But they're doing it. Ugh!

Re: Email issues

While I can't speak about MT's IMAP, I can speak about using Gmail for aggregating other non-gmail accounts. My main email account is actually connected to two others, one being the one I use for MSN Instant Messenger (and Xbox Live) and the other is my utoronto.com university email.

All I can say is that it works flawlessly. It's really great getting all the email I need in one inbox as well as being able to send email as if I was actually logged into those accounts. Needless to say, I love it!

Thanks for linking this Matt. I do watch some of the content on Rev3 but not all of it and I'm pretty sure to have missed this. This is coming at a time when I'm going to be upgrading my sound system soon!

Re: Does Gmail filter spam?

Hmm.. that is weird. I would assume there's something wrong with your account, as my spam filter is great, but maybe it's because I've been using it since the day I got it.

And I second you on the IMAP front. It's great that they have it and all but they really need to pick up the slack on the implementation.

Hmm... it's interesting that you feel like Gmail doesn't have very good spam protection. My thoughts are on the other end of the spectrum - I think that Gmail's spam protection is the best that I've ever seen. While I do get quite a lot, I never see any of it; that's what I think spam protection should be. And I don't think any email that I've wanted to see has ever been put into the spam folder, which is more than I could say for other services.

Oh well - I'm glad that you seem to have found a better option for yourself!

Re: CoverSutra & Last•FM

I personally preferred CoverStream over CoverSutra, but that's just me. It was designed by the same guy that did CoverSutra (Sophia just did the programming) after he left the CoverSutra project.

Anyways, glad you're enjoying it!
