The Twitterati are stocking their bomb shelters with Twinkies in preparation for the "Twitpocalypse," the time at which the number of tweets sent passes the 2,147,483,647 mark, which is the maximum value of a 32-bit signed integer (technically, it's one-half of 2 to the 32nd, minus 1). Each Twitter message has a unique identifier based on that counter.
While usually well-intentioned, geeks are often awkward in social situations. (No, Facebook doesn't count.) We're talking about face-to-face conversation. Short of a permanent power outage, it might be the geek's worst nightmare.
iSink U is based on the classic naval strategy game and is sure to rekindle many fond childhood memories of this classic gaming style. In the game, the player becomes the captain and must command a squadron of powerful ships to obliterate the enemy. Once each captain has had the chance to strategically position his armada, the battle begins! Players take turns and decide whether to move a ship, fire a weapon, or unleash a series of bombs.
