I was listening to PC Gamer’s podcast on my ipod last night while I struggled to find sleep at 4am.  I heard them talking about Diablo 3, and my ears perked up. They were debating the Diablo 3 double bombshells dropped last week. 1.  You will need a persistent internet connection to play Diablo 3 2. There will be a real world money Auction...

I love Twitter. I pretty much have an addiction to it. I spent 8 days at a girlfriend’s this month. She had neither cable nor internet. It was like living in the dark ages! Ok, that’s probably a little melodramatic, but can I say that based on the experience I may have noticed I twitched for my phone on a regular basis to check twitter, my email...
