Link Round-Up: Web Stuff

What are you doing working? Surely whatever you’re doing is less important
than randomly surfing the Web.

• Gamasutra,
  the art and science of making games.
• This is kind of creepy: your one-stop
  resource for female latex masks on the Internet. This page is fine, but
  some internal pages may be unsafe for work (and may cause surreal nightmares).
• Interview
  with Ben Mezrich, the author of a book on how MIT students hack casinos.
  The Wired story
  where the book started is also an excellent read.
• They changed the name of my favourite Mozilla browser again. It used to
  be Phoenix, then it became Firebird and with version 0.8, it’s Firefox. I just sent them a small donation for their excellent product–if you’re a long-term Mozilla user, I suggest that you do too.
• A history of sex
  on film (safe but for a couple small, grainy shots of nude people). "The
  very first kiss on film was between a Victorian couple seen in the Edison
  kinetoscope The May Irwin Kiss (1896). This titillating short 20-second film
  was denounced as shocking and pornographic to early moviegoers and caused
  the Roman Catholic Church to call for censorship."
