For me this was quite a big news item, I got into the DreamStation.cc Video Game Show podcast earlier in the year and have been an avid listener since. The podcast basically covers news, opinion and humour from the world of videogaming and was very well produced/edited compared to many other podcasts – basically think TWiT for gamers.
Well, now the host of the show Chris Paladino has secured a job working for Microsoft’s gaming community site Gamerscore Blog working in the community – a dream come true more-or-less. The rest of the crew have created a new podcasting network Gamercast Network to bring together a range of independent gaming podcasts, this could be good for gamers in general so watch this space.
As for DreamStation.cc, they’re continuing to podcast and will grow into their own style once more, I will definitely keep on listening and using the forums, if you’ve never tried I reccommend you have a look.

So, after months of deliberating I’ve finally started a blog and welcome to it! I’m still not 100% sure what content I’m going to put out, it may be focused on IT, technology and gaming (as these are my specialist subjects), but may expand to include my other interests (music, movies, life in general).
Either way, I hope that if you read my blog that you take away something interesting – if not, feel free to get in touch and suggest how I could do better!
I heard about Vox from one of the fantastic TWiT podcasts hosted by Leo Laporte, and was kindly invited to join this service by JonHirt, a fellow member of the forums at DreamStation.cc. I look forward to exploring what is a relatively new facet of the Internet for me. I’m not a proper ‘old-school’ web user but I’ve been on for roughly a decade and the changes I’ve seen in such a short space of time have been staggering – I definitely buy-into the whole user-created-content idea and shall try to put something interesting back out there.
Cheers, thirtyfootscrew.
P.S. My name on Vox is also my Xbox Live gamertag so feel free to add me to your friends list.
