January 12th, 2009 - Joe Laurino Featured on FullSail.com (again)
Hey guys - look at me, updating on a regular basis like it's cool or something! Just dropping in to point you in the direction of this article that was posted today on Full Sail's website.

January 9th, 2009 - Bio page redone
Why hello there! I didn't see you come in. I just rewrote the bio page; it was in sore need of a rewrite. I will probably be trimming and cleaning up my Key Skills page next. This site is showing it's age, overall, and I'm going to have to re-design it someday when I actually have some time to do so. I might just have somebody do it for me. Any takers? E-mail me. Let's chat.

November 7th, 2008 - Fight Science Game wins 38th Annual Creativity Silver Award
Two updates in two days! Crazy, I know. I just had to come on here because I've got some pretty huge news: I'm proud to announce that Arkadium is the proud recipient of the 38th Annual Creativity Silver Award for National Geographic's Fight Science game, a game which I played a big part in designing. It was obviously a huge effort from the entire company, and without the incredible team we had it wouldn't have happened, but I'm really proud to have been such a big part of it's development.

The Creativity Annual Awards is one of the longest running international advertising and graphic design competitions in the world. This year, judges from some of the United States' most prestigious design firms evaluated the work, and a record 2,800 entries from over 44 countries and 45 U.S. States were submitted. From them, Fight Science was chosen. It is a huge honor to be one of the recipients of such a prestigious award.

November 6th, 2008 - Commercial Page Updated
Why...why hello there! Haven't seen you in a while. It's pretty simple, really. I've been so busy I just haven't had the chance to update. What else is new, right? Either way, I just updated the commercial games page with a sweet new game I just wrapped up for National Geographic, and I added one, count 'em, one new sentence to my biography. If you can find it, I'll mail you a dollar. No, really.
