Daily Roundup: December 8th, 2009

We gotta apologize for the lack of updates over the last few days. Our servers have been acting strangely for anyone in the Toronto area, including those who post from there. Oddly enough no one else is effected – just Drew and I (and anyone in that area trying to view the site). Suffice it to say, we’re looking into it. However, to make up for the lack of OUR posts, here is our daily roundup of what everyone else is talking about. Enjoy.
