From Blizzard.com, the following piece:

Twenty years have passed since the cataclysmic events of Diablo® II. Mephisto, Diablo, and Baal have been defeated, but the Worldstone, which once shielded the world of Sanctuary from the forces of both the High Heavens and the Burning Hells, has been destroyed, and evil once again stirs in Tristram….

Some of the site’s highlights include:

• The cinematic teaser trailer shown at the 2008 Worldwide Invitational
• A 20-minute gameplay demo video
• More than 60 screenshots and pieces of concept art
• Deckard Cain’s journal, narrated by Deckard Cain himself — stay a while and listen!
• And much, much more

Visit the new Diablo III website now to learn more about the game, and make sure to check out the official FAQ and the announcement press release.

The blogger meet at Chennai was proposed by Lemonade, a blogger from Chennai (DUH!).

Chennai blogger meet

I have seen that the first person who says he/she wants to host or start a blogger meeting in his/her city gets to host the indiblogger meeting. This has happened time and time again.

SO IF YOU WANT TO BE A SUPERSTAR INDIBLOGGER MEETING HOST, I SUGGEST YOU START ONE IMMEDIATELY AT INDIBLOGGER.

I remember reading about this incident and thinking, wow, we are in the 21st century and there are fellow human beings still primitive (by our current standards) living amongst us in this world. And it is extremely hard to believe that they are living as much as the same way they lived for thousands of years. The Sentinelese tribe (the tribe in the Andaman Islands) have supposed to have lived in the same island for about 60000 years. Amazing stuff. And if we believe the Bible we are probably only 2000-4000 years old (our world). Hehehehe.

I have put some links where you can read about the sentinelese and about the attacking helicopter with arrows incident.

And some excerpts below:

“Yet when a helicopter flew low over the island, a Sentinelese man rushed out on to the beach, aiming his arrow at the pilot in a gesture that clearly said, ‘We don’t want you here’.”

The above incident clearly tells us that the Sentinelese have survived a thousand mishaps including the 2004 Tsunami and survived. Truly mind blowing stuff.

“Perhaps no people on Earth remain more genuinely isolated than the Sentinelese. They are thought to be directly descended from the first human populations to emerge from Africa, and have probably lived in the Andaman Islands for up to 60,000 years. The fact that their language is so different even from other Andaman islanders suggests that they have had little contact with other people for thousands of years.”

“It is the sheer, intractable hostility of the Sentinelese that makes them so appealing to science. Had they been amenable to the advances of the West, they would have been assimilated long ago, and their unique identity drowned in an inundation of foreign genes. Today, their isolation – biological and geographical – makes them invaluable to studying our own species.”

The folks at Mozilla would love to set a Guinness World Record. How? By getting the most number of download for their much awaited Firefox 3 release. An excerpt from their official site below:

“Sounds like a good deal, right? All you have to do is get Firefox 3 during Download Day to help set the record for most software downloads in 24 hours – it’s that easy. We’re not asking you to swallow a sword or to balance 30 spoons on your face, although that would be kind of awesome.

10 things I miss in my life right now:

1. The time I was 3 years old. Damn. Those days were the best.
2. School days (the usual like everybody else)
3. The two months after college when I was not working at all and playing diablo all day

Sandhya had 8 and I have only three. Am I much more satisfied in life? Hmmm… unanswerable question? Maybe, it was uneventful? Hmmm… maybe.

10 things I want to achieve within a decade:

1. Buy a car
2. Buy a house
3. Setup a sound proof entertainment room just for myself with surround sound, lights and the works
4. Play in a rock band in front of a large crowd
5. Visit a nudist camp
6. Take a one year sabbatical to backpack across Europe

That’s it. I should actually rename the above to 3 things and 6 things that make 9 things. Er… okay.

Goodnight and I love you all. All who want to be tagged, tag yourself.

Because of Kilmister’s historical, sociological and comical value, directors/producers Greg Olliver and Wes Orshoski decided to film Lemmy: The Movie, a documentary of their hero that’s scheduled to surface sometime in 2009. The flick is being shot on a combination of HD video and super 16 mm film and will include tribute interviews with Dave Grohl, Alice Cooper, and Steve Vai and wrestler Triple H as well as abundant video footage of Lemmy doing what he does best.
