MefightClub

Mefight Club is my proudest web achievement. A busy community of really great people who like to play games together, online and off. It's closing in on 3000 members, we've had meetups all around the world, and we've donated more than $10,000 to Child's Play Charity over the past couple of years. It continues to grow, and I continue to love running it.

Gamefilter.net

I created Gamefilter as a Metafilter-clone, at a time when there were very few posts about gaming at Metafilter itself. These days, that's changed. There are posts daily about gaming at MeFi, sometimes more than one, and since GFi never really took off (the eternal fate of Metafilter clones), I decided it was better to retire it until I had time to maybe relaunch something that was slathered with a thinner and more focused layer of awesome sauce.

Emptybottle.org

Emptybottle.org is my web home from back in the Beginning -- my first website, my first weblog, and the place where I did most of my writing for the better part of a decade. Some of my best (and worst) writing is enshrined there for the ages. Writing as a creative outlet hasn't thrilled me as much as it used to, but I still occasionally get a wild hair up my ass and post something.

Full Glass Empty Clip

Full Glass Empty Clip is the public face of Mefight Club, the Metafilter-offshoot gaming community I've been running since 2007. It's a group blog (and podcast) created by any members of the 2500-strong community (as of 2013) who want to contribute.

Outside in Korea

Outside in Korea was going to be my blog about all things Korean. I launched it about the time I lost interest in writing and started becoming more interested in building websites. I keep it around as a resource for people who want to come here, but I haven't written anything there in a very long time.

It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World

My favorite movie of all time is It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World, released all the way back in 1963, before I was even born. I find it hard to explain why, exactly, but my love for it remains undiminished. I put together this site as a wee tribute.

We Lead Not Follow

We Lead Not Follow is a single-serving website I created because the rise of Twitter (and what I think, when I'm feeling cranky, that it represents culturally), well, it annoys me a bit, probably because I am overprotective of my lawn. When Kevin Rose of Digg fame created a Twitter-connected site called WeFollow, I got all exercized and blurted a classic wonderchickensian rant out onto a new domain rather than just posting it to Emptybottle. Ah well. There're a couple of neat wallpapers I made that you can grab, if nothing else.

Ludic Research Labs

LRL is something. Or maybe it's not. It's going to be something, though. Or maybe it won't.
