Imagine the look of surprise on the bad guys' faces when their bullets fire from their rifles, hang in the air for a bit, then do a 180 turn and start heading for them!
I imagine that look would involve their eyes comically bulging out of their skulls.
Online advertising is fraught with privacy concerns as is. Do you really want your ISP, who has access to your home address and credit details, and potentially your entire browsing history and e-mail records, sharing this info with their advertisers?
This isn't just about plugging a banner into a page surreptitiously.
So, when can I expect the article author's "Designing Web Sites for the iPhone" book to hit store shelves?
As several dozen people have pointed out before me, if you design a site to degrade gracefully, this should be a non-issue. I don't expect that Apple is going to somehow graft multi-touch interaction on to web applications (I suspect even their lauded interaction with the phone book is just an implementation of the WTAI standards that have been around for ages; click to call and all that).
But I do expect publishers to already be working on rehashing some of their existing web design titles, grafting on a few pages or a chapter outlining the technical specs of the iPhone, slapping a glossy of the device on the cover and getting some poor out-of-work web developers to plunk down 50 bucks on lessons in developing for the hot new thing.
Yeah, I got rejected from my interview with the Scientologists. I think it wasn't long after I asked when I would get my lazer zapper to go after the space aliens, because I was really good at Nintendo.
After all, once you call into question the veracity of one online video (that was "hacked" by the other party), you basically cast doubt on all online videos. Which makes it that much harder to bring down a campaign with a Youtube video of your candidate pandering to a bunch of racists by making racist remarks.
You know what other fictional city bears more than a striking resemblance to New York? Gotham City. Hopefully the New York Daily News reporters can demonstrate due diligance in getting Bloomberg to deny the existence of caped crusaders dressed as bats roaming the city at night, on the record of course.
EA claims that they're working on foot planting and other realism-enhancing animations. I think there's videos online from their E3 presentation, and while it looks good, I'm still less than convinced of their ability to pull it all off in-game.

But in Japan the girl being underage be a feature, not a failure condition.
Sounds like a job for the Mythbusters!

But when the next major city's building is downed by a pack of giant floating hot pink phalli, they'll be saying "I told you so".
It must be all that Brain Age they're playing in the senior homes.
Go on and laugh, floating disembodied head of Ryuta Kawashima. Laugh all the way to the bank.

Look around you. Are you sure you didn't just somehow end up at Burning Man?
"Disappointment of outrageous expectations has now led to the death of several men living in their mothers' basements."
Terrorist suicide bomber, up in heaven: "These are so not the virgins I was expecting."
Won't somebody please think of the profit margins?
At least if it stops working, I can walk the rest of the way.
You should have used electrical tape.

Maybe I should have told them I play Halo too?

If you find a spider over you several times, I think it stops being coincidence.
That spider has got it in for you.
If I ran an anti-Putin web site, I would be concerned about any offers to eat out at a Japanese restaurant.
For a new breed of modern warfare. Simply fill the device with eels...

That Peter Vallone not only knows of, but has apparently played Halo!
Seriously, this is a gigantic non-story. The two best pull quotes they could manage say nothing directly negative about the game at all.

Why plug the holes? Blaming "the other guy" for a malicious attack on your web presence makes for such good press.
Though I hear a lot of the crowd thinned out once the unruly teenage bullies and happy slappers came to the party.
The smell of farts? I think you answered that other guy's question about how to replicate the scent of the Jersey Shore.
Also, you're not supposed to use it while taking a shower.
I hear that Google is trying to change all that.
