MIT Flea. Next time you're in Massachusetts be sure and drop by the MIT flea-market. Probably the only place in the world you can buy an original Enigma machine, some cannonballs, a "Boob Radio" and a Spongebob Squarepants PC case on the same day.
The Setup. Not sure how I managed to miss this. Internet-famous developers and writers write-up what they use for their computing needs. Good selection of people, but would be much improved by photos of their working environments and screenshots of their desktops.
Continuity. Flash puzzle game combining a platformer and a sliding block puzzle to great effect. I like the overloading of the minimal keyboard controls and the gentle introduction of new concepts. Very cleverly thought out.
