  Oh em gee, I didn't realise you could hover over your pic/avatar now and get a pop up of Channel9/MSDN details. Sweet.

  The lightbulb is back, woot! (we still miss you Paul)

  You should get the 4 square Windows Phone logo shaved onto the horses side

  Really looking forward to E3 to see what new is coming!

  Thanks for the tip on Facebook security sharing thingy, I've not updated my settings

  Nice to see the dynamic duo back together. The inclusion of the Mini-Me Laura was just epic!

  In case you didn't know, Laura was kind of a big deal on G4 back in the day.  I think Laura is only in Seattle for the weather.

  Nah, she stays around so she can host ping with you.

  @wkempf: Yeah, I think he said it was the Samsung Dev tablet they gave out at one of their conferences a few months back.

  A new face on Ping! sweet, welcome Eric. Shame Adam couldn't make a cameo, he hasn't been on for ages.

   

  Codeplex  is an excellent site.

   

  Wordament, one of the greatest games on WP7. I've been playing since it first launched and now with Achievements it cannot get any more awesome! Having XBL integration has certainly brought in new folks, which is great. I agree about the time running out, the 10 second countdown was one of the major missing features but now it is there.

   

  Surely by now with all the new faces you must be able to scrape together that Halo squad, Tournament coming soon...?

  Do you mean the video quality?  You do realize that in order to see a laser you have to fill the room with smoke/fog, right?

  I meant fake, I know you need to fog the room up and the beam was way too solid for that amount of smoke unless it was crazy powerful and would be popping more than a ballon.

   

  I'm saying shenanigans on it.

  You could just but a chatpad for your xbox and use the keyboard to type in your password

   

  I like the virtual show, but looks like you still need a desk. Balancing the computers on your laps looks like they are always ready to fall.

   

  Halo Tournament - coming Fall 2014!

  Clint is back, woot! Paul is forgiven for being away this week as he was in good ol' Blighty.

   

  Yeah MS are cool

   

  @pantera9 I agree, we need to be able to buy this stuff online outside the US.
