  I'm a developer now fella's

  Hey all you GameSpot folk.

  As you may have noticed, I've been increasingly silent around these parts. Why? Well let me tell you. Way back when this site was knee deep in glitches and problems, around the same time as the whole Jeff thing, I decided to get back into making my own website. In particular, a personal blog and visual collective of my art works.

  Still in a pre alpha state it's coming on nicely. One of the biggest problems so far was screen resolutions. I sit here with two 22" monitors and I have to cater for a minimum of 1024x768, which any web designer will tell you is the most popular screen resolution. So thing's look a little narrow, much like GameSpot filling in the 800x600 market. Two huge sides of gray doing nothing. A secondary problem is cross browser support. In a way it's like making a game for the PS3 and X360. Both do things differently and so the end result is different. Never the less it needs to be done as Internet Explorer is the most popular browser followed by Firefox.

  So what will become of me over here on GameSpot? Well I intend to use it as a Games Portal to track my latest gaming interests. And of course I have Common Wordage. Most of the blogging I do here is game related, as you would expect. I still intend to post on my GS Blog just real selected stuff. Plus it will all be available on the new blog anyway.

  So when will this beast be unleashed? Well it's done when it's done. Unlike a game web design is incrimental and no final boxed version if sent out. It always updates. So as soon as I get the main elements in and it looking pretty I'll let rip on the URL.

  Tar very much. Stay on me to get the latest news on it.

  Check out this shiny new promo trailer

  In the wake of the (really quite good) Common Wordage Game Night I have put together this short promotional trailer to show people what they missed out on.
  
  If you feel the urge to join the Common Wordage Union then click here to see what the fuss is all about. If you feel the urge to include this video on your blog then do that too. It can't do any harm and may actually help the union to grow.
