The Cultural Gutter by Guy Leshinski, Jim Munroe, and James Schellenberg is new, blogstyle and fun. Here's a good quote about computer games (and tap water) by JM:
"In the move from the arcade to the basement, we've lost more than bragging rights. The seedy-cool image of hanging out at the arcade -- which perhaps jump-started the gaming industry -- was traded in for a bland suburban model. Like a lot of shifts from the public to the private, the convenience and control we've gained is at the expense of certain intangibles. While hardly as ominous or significant a trend as bottled water undermining our public water system, these social shifts are both largely instigated by marketing pushes."
