Addictive Tower Defense with Martin Kess

Martin Kess, one of the founding members of CompSci.ca, has been busy working on a fantastic looking game for the BlackBerry platform: Addictive Tower Defense. This isn’t the first of the quality games to come from the CompSci.ca community members, but it certainly raises the bar once again.

I caught up with Martin to talk about the game.

Computer Science jobs for University Students

I’m often asked about available jobs for Computer Science students. More so in light of the recent economic downturn. A new trend that I’m observing, since 2 years ago, is that there is a substantial increase of job postings from much smaller start-up companies.

Economic hardship breeds innovation. It puts large corporations into a compromised position, and that opens up an opportunity for small, agile, smart, inexpensive, but super-productive startups to come into play and compete with established corporations.

Legalizing p2p scheme: legally borrow music from the internets

While a lot of people scream that RIAA/MPAA are not keeping up with the times and technology, we are not really any closer to having an entertainment distribution system that takes advantage of available technology to make it convenient for consumers and one which fairly compensates the industry that creates the said content. So I propose starting a discussion, by presenting a scheme that pulls p2p technology and current copyright laws closer together.
