As the unofficial mascot/spokesfly for Ticking Brain Entertainment, I welcome you to this fancy smancy News & Notes update source for all things Ticking Brain Ent.
Okay, admitedly a blog hardly qualifies as "fancy smancy" but I was told to include that phrase along with the terms hip, sweet, cool, wildly entertaining, fresh, and web 3.0 (glad that's out of the way)
First a little about me: Briny Picklestem. I use to be huge. During the dotcom explosion web mascots like myself were in big demand and living large off superbowl ads and venture capital cheques.
Remember myflytrader.com? That was me baby! I was a media king. Kids used to dress up like me on Halloween and shout "Trick or Trade" for crying out loud. Sure they were paid to do it, but it happened! Then the bubble burst and --poof-- it was over. They were all gone. Bankrupt and... well it hurts even to think about those dark days now.
Anyway point being my fees had dropped somewhat and, after 5 lost years in the wilderness (more on that later), this guy named Kit called me up and offered me a gig writing his production company's news & notes page. So here I am, underpaid but generally appreciated and all about hyping whatever Ticking Brain Entertainment has up its sleeve next. Um... I guess I'll start that next post.
