Played a bit of the campaign mode then gave online play a go. The Online multiplayer is full on and i was getting completely destroyed for the first 30mins or so but slowly got better and so far its looking like money well spent.

Here's a review from IGN.

]]>Squarespace iPhone Apphttp://www.86rin.com/blog/2009/11/10/squarespace-iphone-app.htmlRyan Nash2009-11-10T05:55:27ZTech iPhoneFinally got my hands onto the new Squarespace app. First impressions are that its a great looking app and its general feel is quick and very easy to get used to. I am actually writing this post using it.

The extended delay was annoying but its been well worth the wait. I can only hope now that having this app will get me blogging more.

P.S - After initially posting this from the Iphone app i had a look and the 2 screenshots had posted in full size at the top of the post. I had to fix this via the web interface. Not a hugh issue but i couldn't find a way to control how images would be posted.

Waving goodbye to Vista was nice though i hadn't really had that much trouble with it in the 2 years or so i have had it.

Install was as painless as expected and it is running great much better than vista. First thing i did was grab security essentials and Live mail something i think most will do as soon as they install. A few updates and a quick trip to get Chrome, iTunes etc and I was up and running.

I am really liking the jump lists makes it so much easier to launch the programs i commonly use.

Here is a couple of links to tips etc for windows 7 that i have found interesting.
