- Henry Porter talks in the Guardian about new legislature that would give MPs greater power with less parliamentary oversight “The Prime Minister claims to be defending liberty but a barely noticed Bill will rip the heart out of parliamentary democracy” – the authoritarian streak of the Labour party I voted for is becoming increasingly obvious as time passes…
- I’ve finally watched the damn Will Wright video for Spore and frankly it’s astonishing It’s half an hour long so I suppose it’s forgiveable that I didn’t make the time, but I absolutely totally bloody should have done. Incredible and amazing. I want to get me this game right about now, thanks very much.

I hope it doesn’t pull a Black and White – eagerly anticipated, technically brilliant but only really fun for a couple of hours (most people I know gave up at level 3). Given Wright’s history I’d be very surprised if that happens though.
You actually watched the abridged version!
The real video is over an hour, and has Will riffing on all kinds of topics, carebears, game cracks, etc.

Yeah, I just watched it last week too. Same reaction, absolutely fan-freaking-tastic stuff.
Good grief! Spore looks incredible… I don’t think I’ve ever seen a game that looks so creatively engaging. That will be a ‘black hole of time’ for many, many people. Can’t wait!
Amazing…
Do you know if it will be available on OS X? I can’t seem to find the details…
