I'm shivering right now.

Anyway, I was strolling around the web these early morning hours (Daniel Mc Neely's Twitter account to be specific) when I happened to notice that AG took the cover of a weekly Orange County publication.

Woah, surprised me there.

Anyway, the article is about Armor Games and online casual gaming.

Take a look and tell me what you think.

I thought it'd be interesting to share this here. I hope I don't link fail.

Yeah, thanks for the heads up about it, I'm only on the third page right now, would probably be done if Sloth hadn't got me started on the World Cup...

I'll probably have some things to say it when I'm done reading.

I skimmed through the thing, so I'll do some in-depth reading soon enough. As soon as I finish that cake.

The average player on ArmorGames.com stays for 14 minutes.


Well, none of us are quite the average players, then are we? They only took into consideration the gaming aspects of the site though, so I would assume that that makes sense...

Whenever I do play a game here, though, it's for much longer than only 14 minutes. I love my attention span.

Well, it's usually two hours for me. Though most of the thousands of people who visit the site only come on to kill off time playing games casually. We here don't just come here to spend our office breaks.

Well I just finished the entire article. I have to say I wasn't aware the AG was so popular, or so small. I guessed AG had atleast if not more than 20 people working for them, but it turns out there's all of 8 or 9 people.

Hum. Only on page two but the article made me laugh. Literally, they told me how the company had only 11 people working with them. And that they had Nerf guns all over the place. And yeah. Once I have read the whole article.

Wow I never knew AG was that popular, heck the way they made it sound this is the top casual game site on the web.

The office sounds like a great place to work. Wonder what the benefits are...

A million people visit every day. Not that surprising.

Oops, didn't finish my post. Once I have read the whole article... I'll bet I will have laughed some more. And I was right. But it taught me a lot of things.
