Yes, especially the 1UP link is damn great. And gotta agree with creamclouds on another thing too - you seriously are the best indie site in the web. Articles and news are interestingly written, categorized logically (browser game pick etc.) and they are published frequently. The blog's layout is great too. Thank you!
