Reports of Cyan's Death Greatly Exaggerated

Via Edge Online, the word from Mercury News that Cyan Worlds is actually not so dead after all. They closed up shop earlier this month, but it looks like they're back from the grave. From the article: "I was about to prepare the company's obituary. But Cyan isn't dead yet. I sent an e-mail off to Rand and he answered, 'We've had a reprieve. Managed to pull a rabbit out of the hat (that I can't give details about yet), so we rehired almost everybody. Crazy industry. It's giving me whiplash!' This company has had an incredible run since Miller and his younger brother Robyn founded it in 1987. They created 'The Manhole,' the first game on a CD-ROM. And in 1991, they began work on Myst. They released it on Sept. 24, 1993, and they changed the gaming world."

Can we get another few degrees of separation next time? I like to be as far away from my news as possible.
