Penny Arcade Makes Time 100

Precision noticed that Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins of Penny Arcade fame have made the Time 100. The writeup talks about Child's Play and PAX and lavishes deserved adoration upon the pair. I've always envied their ability to maintain control over their brand and use it for appropriately portioned good and evil ;)

People only pretend to like things that are popular with what they consider their peer-group.

Usually things get popular by starting with a single person or small group of people that are influential within that peer group. The rest follow them.

Please come to my office. I do a lot of PowerPoint presentations, but my projector is about to die, and I think I could easily replace it with you.
