Pacman on Google
What better way to celebrate Pacman’s 30th anniversary than for Google to not only design their typical iconic Google themed logos in Pacman maze letters but to one-up themselves by creating an actual interactive Pacman game you can play from their home page on May 21st /22nd, 2010. To top it off, if you press Insert Coin, they even have a version with both Pacman and Ms. Pacman playing side by side
If you’re old enough you probably remember Pacman Fever on the blasting on the radio waves and from the arcades 30 years ago. And if you didn’t know, Pacman is the most recognized game character in the world. Hopefully Pacman will make a decent comeback someday soon. Inspired by Pacman’s 30th anniversary and feeling a little nostalgic? Check out all these Pacman arcade games on Amazon.
So if you missed Pacman on Google, you can watch the Pacman video clip below. Way cool Google.
Now back to work…
Earthquake Aftershocks in San Diego
San Diego and much of SoCal experienced one its first major earthquakes today ranging from 6.9 to 7.2 located in Baja Mexico. Although minimal damage was reported, Twitter was the first place everyone announced it. Once the Tweetphotos are posted http://tweetphoto.com/17203656 http://tweetphoto.com/17193393 and the FourSquare Swarm Badges are garnered, it's time to kick back for a beer and a few aftershocks. Cheers!

What a Power Outage Looks Like At Night
On January 27th, 2010, someone crashed into a transformer around 5th and Laurel causing a power outage for 3+ hours in the Bankers Hill area of San Diego. All was black except a few businesses with power generators, headlights from cars and occasional solar powered lighting in people's yards. It was eerie but interesting none the less.
