I enjoyed J.D. Meier's article How to Think Like Bill Gates. Lots of other good stuff on Meier's blog.

Last night I watched some videos of the Epic’s newly released “Gears of War 2.” It’s of special interest to me because I was VP of programming at a game company developing a game on Epic’s engine during the Unreal Tournament/Warfare time frame around 2000-2002. Working with this game engine was one of the most challenging and fun things I’ve ever done.
