Finally, an update!

Hello internet 🙂

So it has been quite a while since I last updated… Things have been quite busy recently. Right now the biggest thing on my plate is figuring what I will be up to after college. Looking for a job, especially in this economy is getting harder. I recently got interviewed about it here. I just made a linkedin account to help me in my search. So far, I have been really impressed by how it was easy to set up and how useful it is. There are also so many people on it already.

With my last long Christmas break flying by there is still so much that I wanted to get done. I am still trying to keep up my game site. Another thing that is long overdue for an update. I recently added a social feature using google friend connect though. Seems to be working nicely, although too few of my users make use of it.

Hopefully my next post will not take me so long. Thanks for visiting!
