Hypercritical #48: Blue Ocean
December 30, 2011 at 2:00pm • Short URL • Wiki Entry
John Siracusa and Dan Benjamin briefly indulge in more grammar questions, then revisit the consequences of HyperCard’s demise, why we’re all still talking about the Kindle Fire, using music and movies to split humanity into two groups, the pros and cons of different working environments, and finally, a brief history of Nintendo and a not-so-brief consideration of why they should or should not continue to make their own hardware.
