My very first blog entry (that's not a test)

Here are some definitions. By me, of course.
Web 2.0: "A series of Internet technologies that are primarily designed to enhance the social and creative possibilities and capabilities of the World Wide Web."
Widget: "An application for any interactive device that offers niche capabilities."

I'm very excited by the possibilities presented by this unit. Script writing for a game? Making a proposal for a revolutionary video game? Pretty cool stuff.
"Historically", story has always been the weak point of the new narrative genre that is the video game. I mean, games often have really cool premises. And frequently really damn cool plots. But the actual storytelling? Structure, characterization, lines of dialogue?
So here's the less acerbic and more hopeful perspective: We've got nowhere to go but up at this point!
