Today in Gaming: DotA Today is a new video game podcast for fans of the on-line third-person, demigod-smiting video game DotA 2 -- developed by Valve.
The podcast features two members of the illustrious IdleThumbs team -- Nick Breckon and Sean Vanaman -- discussing strategy within the world of DotA 2, their personal obsessions with bottling Tinker, and various upcoming marital milestones. The inaugural episode is poignantly entitled, "QOP top and POTM bottom".
Today in Gaming: it has been discovered that Microsoft -- in their infinite wisdom -- has failed to procure the domain name xboxone.com from the squatter who has owned it for the past two years. That's sad. However, there's hope. Perhaps this will shine a light on the horrific practice of domain squatting and maybe someone powerful -- like Microsoft -- might even do something about it.
