- A peak concurrency of 59,344 at 2:05PM, and a minimum concurrency of 26,970 at 1:10AM. Median concurrency for the day was 46,813.

- The big news is that IBM have what appear to be Agni grid simulators on their own corporate network as a part of a larger initiative.
- We look at the way things collide under Havok 1 and 4.
- 3D Connexion is making a big splash about their already-supported Space Navigator mouse being supported from around mid April this year. We're asking some questions about that. The mouse is widely used by SLCN.tv and many machimima makers.
