Latest from the ‘tube

Bombs away! Atari's Canyon Bomber gets a fresh look, blimps, biplanes, black & white graphics and all. Phosphor Dot Fossils ( http://www.thelogbook.com/phosphor/ ) is one of the web's oldest archives of vintage console, computer, and arcade games; there was also a 2-DVD documentary of the same name, covering the early history of video games, produced in 2008 and 2009 (now available for download at http://www.thelogbook.com/store/ ). And these days? PDF aims to bring a more laid-back, less-caffeinated, less-profanity-spewing experience to the retro video game longplay video. Check out my other projects and podcasts: eBooks "VWORP!1", "VWORP!2", "WARP!1" and "Fatherhood, Fandom, And Fading Out" available at http://www.thelogbook.com/store/ and at Amazon! Select Game: Expanded Memories of the Odyssey2 podcast - http://www.thelogbook.com/selectgame/ Retrogram podcast - http://www.thelogbook.com/retrogram/ Dont Give This Tape To Earl podcast - http://www.thelogbook.com/thistape/ theLogBook.com's Escape Pod daily mini-podcast - http://www.thelogbook.com/podcast/ And, of course, the site that started it all, combining sci-fi, retro video games, book, music and toy reviews, and all sorts of retro-futurist fun: http://www.thelogbook.com All of the above podcasts are available on iTunes and Stitcher. Want to support more projects like all of the above? Feel free to throw a few coins in the hat at http://www.patreon.com/thelogbook/ or help rebuild the post-cross-country-move studio via our Amazon wish list at http://a.co/7oUbGgb - and many many thanks to everyone who has supported theLogBook.com's podcasting and videocasting endeavours!
