Do you think you know movies? CBS needs you for their new version of the $64,000 Question. Get compensated for testing out their questions, and if they pro ceed with creating the show you can be one of the experts that challenges the contestant (and get "real money").

I made it through 1:33 of Bathory's Car Horn Symphony No. 1 (mp3.com blocks deep linking, scroll down). How far did you get?

I was impressed and rather delighted to see www.womengamers.com, let alone their article on PC gaming magazine ads. It coulda been a better ar ticle, if only because it makes the magazines' content (heavily and narrowly targeted toward 12-16 year old boys) a secondary point. We're talking small photos of bikini-clad women inset into articles and sidebars for no reason, with no captions. (Or does only one mag do this?)

The article cites the Interactive Digital Software Association's annual Video and PC Game Industry Trends Survey, claiming PC game purchasers are 49 percent fem ale (a suspicious and poorly worded statistic, but perhaps a hint that the actual figure is greater than 5 percent magazine content seems to imply).

That article also cites this article, which leads us to this list of girl gamers sites.
