A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you.

- Cool image of Heath Ledger from The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. (Via)
- Joystiq offers coverage of a round-table discussion they participated in with the lead writer of Star Wars: The Old Republic. Unsurprisingly, the focus was on storytelling in the game.
