After working for the weekend, itās here, a few days off that weāll celebrate with this special edition of Kotaku Off Topic, where anything goes. Well, almost anything.
Iām kicking off the weekend with a little pho tonight, perhaps a few big Kirin Ichibans and some relaxation. Itāll be a frosty 50 degrees Farenheit here in Los Angeles, so some hot broth with some rare beefāhold the tendon!āwill do the trick. What do you plan to do with your weekend?
Get caught up on some of this weekās more interesting non-video game related things below, then comment away about whateverās on your noodle tonight.
The Scale of the Universe ā Ever wondered how an ostrich egg compares in size to Alpha Centauri?
Googleās getting into the fiber business ā After Wave and Buzz, Iām feeling more Google bad vibes than ever.
More chronicles of Riddick coming ā Please be better than The Chronicles of Riddick.
The guy who interviewed John Mayer for Playboy is interviewed ā You heard about this, right?
Bill Gates: We need global āenergy miraclesā ā Iām doing my part by buying Windows 7 at some point.
We Are The World 25 for Haiti ā Please give generously so this gets minimal airplay.
