Greg Costikyan just started a blog dealing with games, game design, and game culture.
It's at:

http:www.costik.com/weblog

He hopes to be posting a fairly extensive essay every week or so, dealing with one or another of his bete noires, some recent development in the field, a particular game, or something of the kind.

He's starting the blog mainly because he rarely finds this kind of material on the Web; consumer-oriented sites offer mainly reviews, while professional sites offer mainly how-to material. He wants deeper analysis, and since he doesn't often find it, he might as well write it himself.
