  2. Here's Finland's largest daily paper reporting on the Diana Jones Award shortlist: hs.fi/kulttuuri/Suom…
  3. And Dragon's back.
  4. Delighted that the live video feed from #Leveson is the second Google result for "guardian hunt"... after a Guild Wars wiki.
  5. @gmehn Apparently as it powers up it begins to function as a heat-exchanger, drawing energy from warmth around it. It sez here.
  6. “May It Be My Fortune” by Randy Hard and the Hi-Lites is my new jam. ♫ t.thisismyjam.com/JamesWallis/_1…
  7. Apparently MIT researchers have made an LED with energy-efficiency of 230%. Either wildest crankery or the future. wired.co.uk/news/archive/2…

  9. @twoscooters Two of the DJA nominees aren't games (one's a book, the other's a funding model) but point taken and thank you.
  10. Just found the word 'gamification' in a book that purports to have been written in 1798. (Okay, strictly 'en-gamification'.)

  12. @tinstargames I am increasingly convinced that the way we should monetize the Diana Jones Award is to take bets on the winner.
  13. @h4nchan That's a relief.
  14. @h4nchan Is it me?
  15. @thefingersofgod Is it Crossroads?
  16. Full descriptions and arguments for the 2012 Diana Jones Award for Excellence in Gaming shortlist now up at dianajonesaward.org/12nominees.html
  17. @thefingersofgod @pornokitsch What was the question again?
