And the CYOA books are actually not exceptions in this respect, for they too are books that perform a task. But rather than being a definition retrieval system or associative datastore, their interactive function is to create a gameworld for the reader. This is part of the wonder of these books &#8212; they took a pre-existing set of interface conventions designed for utilitarian search tasks and mapped a new activity onto it. They were effectively a new kind of software application for the oldest information-display platform we have.&quot;<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/bruji.com\/articles\/2009\/11\/09\/and-its-back\/\" title=\"Bruji&rsquo;s Pocketpedia is Back!\">Bruji&rsquo;s Pocketpedia is Back!<\/a>: &quot;We&#39;re very excited to announce that Pocketpedia2 has passed its App Store review and is available once more for download through the iTunes Store.&quot;<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.djay-software.com\/accessories\/spin\" title=\"Djay &raquo; Spin - the All-in-One Controller for Djay\">Djay &raquo; Spin &#8211; the All-in-One Controller for Djay<\/a>: &quot;Spin is the perfect all-in-one hardware solution to control djay, allowing anyone to mix, scratch, and play music as a DJ would right at your fingertips.

Greg plays Matt Parkman on Heroes (this information, which most of you don&#39;t need, is provided as a public service to the seven of you who do), and has been in every JJ Abrams project since JJ started making movies in the pre-old days. Greg and I traded several messages about a bunch of different things, and then he sent me a private message that said something like, &#39;JJ needs voice actors for Star Trek. Would you be interested in doing that?&#39;&quot;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometime between November 5th and November 12th, I thought this stuff was interesting.
