Lets conduct a little social networking experiment - Computers N Stuff have joined the Twitter revolution.
Not only does the feed, powered by TwitterTools for Wordpress, offer notifications of updates too the site but Barry and myself will be updating it frequently with insightful... insights and thoughts on the industry and possibly even a sneak preview or two on games we're reviewing.

Barry had a little lamb – new addition to the CNS stable
Jan 21st
There's been a reason why you have been stuck with me, Andrew, for what seems like an eternity now and that's because Barry only went and conducted a field test too see if his sperms had been damaged by deadly radiation.
Lots of things happened that many of you won't understand and now he has a son called Jason. Mother & child are doing fine. I would say the father is too, but you know, it's Barry!
Word is that the infant will be introduced to the concept of m+kb from an early stage and the stereotypical rattle will be substituted for a SIXAXIS controller.
I would post a picture or two, but I don't have any, so after the break are some cute pictures of bunnies and kittens to fill for time.

‘Games will eclipse other media’ says Activision CEO
Jan 10th
During a keynote speech at the CES, Activision Publishing head honcho Mike Griffith boldly claimed that computer games are set to eclipse all other forms of entertainment.
As per usual, the figures quoted are fairly meaningless, effectively comparing apples to oranges, but Griffith proceeded to compare the still-blossoming video games market to the huge century-old monolithic music and movie industries, both of which are struggling to let go of archaic distribution methods.
CNS List-o-tron-o-matic – Our Best Of 2008
Jan 7th
Because we're having a slow news time, what with there being a typical post-christmas lull, a global recession and nothing but a load of announcements & promises in the form of press releases (coupled with the fact we forgot to do it in 2008), here's the CNS Best of 2008
Slowdown…

Due to the slow news period, CNS would like to take this opportunity to present...

We'll be back properly when we've reviewed something and/or there's something to write about!
Merry Christmas to you all
Dec 22nd
Merry Christmas to all readers of Computers N Stuff.
I'd like to personally thank you all for coming here and checking us out all year, and making this our most successful year in terms of hits.
I'd also like to personally thank Andrew for his much much appreciated help in the past couple of months, as without it, i'd have had to shut the site down.
I'd also like to thank all the PR peeps who've helped me along, by sending code or just answering my questions.
I Hope you all have a great Christmas, and a brilliant New Year. We'll be back properly in the New Year, but i may not be for a while - due to the birth of my First Child....and i'll be sure to let everyone know when it happens!
Thanks for all the support,
Barry Hodgson, Owner Computers N Stuff.

Normal Service will be resumed tomorrow.
Welcome to the New Computers N Stuff
Jul 23rd
Well, if you're reading this then everything has gone all right and we've relaunched Computers N Stuff again!
We've opted to go for a blog format this time, as it'll be easier for us to update, and for you to find what you are looking for. We're still making some cosmetic changes so please bear with us while we sort these few niggles out.
We've got some reviews coming up online shortly and we'll be back to normal service in no time!
