Still here, just

So I've been on a CAB project based in Johannesburg for the last few months, which is my excuse for the woeful inattention I've paid to this blog in that time.  I hope to publish some of my learnings from the experience here shortly, but in the meantime I've been brushing up on some other interesting technologies around right now.  I've found Riemers XNA tutorials to be an excellent resource - in case you've been living under a rock for the past year, XNA is Microsoft's new game development platform targeting the Xbox 360 as well as the PC.

The tutorials cover basics from creating your first triangle, to 3D terrain, lighting, bump mapping and many more cool things - one series of tutorials has you generating an entire combat flight sim.  Don't forget XNA is free to develop games for the PC and allows you to program games with minimum fuss using either C# or Visual Basic .NET.
