So today we began the long, arduous, drawn-out process of upgrading and updating the website, server-side. We’re going to be taking the website in a slightly more personal direction starting next year, and I (JW) felt that I should get a start on, you know, updating the look and feel a little.

I’m a dumbass for thinking this. The moment I opened up the Style.CSS file, I remembered why I always had somebody else do this. “CSS is easier than HTML”, my ass.

And finally, if you didn’t think that Kotaku wasn’t a blog solely about rehashing Press Releases and stopping dead in their journalistic tracks whenever “boobies” are waved in front of them, remember this: They posted five seven Press Releases on their site on this Monday. Before noon.
