OUTDATED (2009-JUN-02): Since the introduction of Xona Games and our first video game, Duality ZF, our main page became our blog.  It's a developer's blog which contains all of our articles, no matter the topic.  Thus, categorizing blog entries (below) and become out of date.  We will continue to categorize our tech articles as "non-blog" and leave this section of our site alive, just in case you have stumbled here.  But, visit our main page for our true blog.

Our blog entries articles.  See all articles at xona.com/articles.

This blog is about all our personal interests.  There are no "boring how-to" tech articles here, only interesting reads.  Also, it allows us to publish atypical articles, such as MonopolyParsec (our old favorite TI-99/4A video game), and optical illusions.

See our blog introduction entry for more details.
