On Achievements

Woven at 2009-01-21T14:53, coloured as .

After reading Michaël Samyn’s post on achievements I realised that more and more games are implementing this, though not always calling it achievements.

Der Großteil aller Weblogs hat allerdings eher den Charakter von privaten Tagebüchern. Im Gegensatz zum klassischen Einsatzgebiet steht hier der Blogger selbst im Mittelpunkt.
