Safe and sound in Ottawa! Will be heading out to Kanata (Scotiabank Place) tomorrow, as well as the Museum of Civilization in Gatineau, then Parliament Hill and some other buildings/museums Saturday. It's going to be raining cats and dogs, but will try to make the best of it. Here he is below... Don't know if I converted him into a hockey fan, though.

I believe it to be this one mentioned here - http://www.cliftonhill.com/falls_blog/2006...-with-tourists/

So who is getting the bear next, just so i can keep things updated

I dont know exactly where that is, but it shouldn't be a problem, i'm in that area all the time.

So, I went all over Ottawa as much as I could today, because tomorrow is going to be down-pouring pretty much all day. I'm going to be uploading all of the pics Sunday night while I'm pulling an all-nighter before my flight up north (no point going to bed if I get in at 10PM, and have to be awake for 3AM or so, hahaha. So here is a teaser for now. Commentary will be added when I upload the bulk of pics.

Here are the pics of the Ottawa portion of his stay. We leave for the Arctic in under 4 hours (4:40 AM EDT), and are dead tired already. Just click onwards to my Flickr, because I don't really want to overwhelm the page with a lot of pictures... One which is massive.

In the mean time, just figure out who is next, and have them PM me the address so I can send him off ASAP.

Tracking number says moonman got it Friday, so we are all now waiting on him. :D

tracking number does say that but i havn't got it yet! just checked mail box again today but nothing, then went to local post office and apparently, the "out for delivery" doesnt mean out for delivery to me lol. The guy at the local office said the item is still in the big station in richmond hill and it'll get to the local office tomorrow most likely!

Hahahaha, gotta love Canada Post. That's the first I've heard of that issue (out for delivery always literally meant that for me), but really, after issues over the years, I don't doubt it. An no slip left behind, either? *sigh* We should complain. :p

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
