Bookmarks for December 9th through December 10th

delicious These are my links for December 9th through December 10th: Rant: Please, Economic Crisis, Put An End To The Christmas Rush - "When people are concerned about money, they’re not going to buy 4-6 games over a three-month period. They’re going to buy 1-2. And faced with a situation like that, why buy Resistance 2 when you can buy a Call of Duty game? Why buy Rock Band 2 when Rock Band 1 was doing just fine?"

I mean that’s a bizarre business model in any arena.
