ABOUT CLICKED

The modern news consumer ignores Weblogs and online citizen journalism at his own peril. But not everyone has the time to keep track of what's going on the Web. With this blog we hope to track the highlights of what's being discussed online so when news breaks from the Web, we're ready.

Will Femia is a Weblog enthusiast who, through good fortune and dumb luck, was introduced to the form as his position as chat producer for MSNBC.com careered into obsolescence. On any given day, Will can be found having already spent an unhealthy amount of time squinting at a computer screen.

The new MSNBC.com game is out

Check out the new MSNBC.com game.  It's like Break Out but with headlines dropping on you.  I just took the number 1 position on the board with 16950.

Ugh, I wanted to like it, but the controls SUCK. Not responsive enough. I'll go back to playing Jardinains instead.
Game was fun (I made 20,000 or so), but as the levels get harder the game becomes more and more choppy and laggy. Has nothing to do with whether or not any news titles are falling; even when their is nothing in the air moving but the ball, it stutters its way up and down. Gets almost impossible eventually because of it. Hopefully they'll fix the kinks.
I don't have arrow keys on my keyboard. :)
