Numerous video game-related YouTube personalities have spent the last day digging through piles of copyright claims suddenly filling their inboxes, claims that they say are messing with their ability to produce and profit from videos they post online.
On December 4, when you were doing whatever you were doing, a gamer who goes by the name of Artio was apparently chartering a plane to fly her to a remote town in Alaska. Why? So she could make a particularly powerful move in the video game Ingress.
In case you missed it over the long weekend, there's now a YouTube app for the 3DS. One step closer to a golden age where every game console has the ability to display adorable kitten videos. Waiting on you, PlayStation 4.

Ever read the comments on a popular YouTube video? There is no faster way to strip yourself of faith in humanity. It's a cesspool. And this is coming from someone who writes for the Gawker network. We know a little something about rowdy comments sections. YouTube's is worse, but it's finally about to smarten up.
There's no such thing as a Google games console. The company has enough on its plate with Android as it is. But if it were to enter the market itself, well, it could do a lot worse than this effort.
Last year Google released its first official mid-sized Android tablet, the Nexus 7. I called it "The Best Way to Play Android Games."
Sixty-six years ago today the Roswell, New Mexico Daily Record stunned the country with one of the finest examples of a sensationalist headline this side of... well, nevermind that. "RAAF Captures Flying Saucer On Ranch In Roswell Region," was a joke, a sham, a goof, and certainly not proof of aliens landing on U.S.…
Amazon Japan has harnessed (hired?) goats to manicure the grounds at its distribution center in Gifu Prefecture. And the most interesting part? Amazon isn't even the first internet company to do this!

As we've shown you, Google Glass has the potential to turn your life into a video game
Google is famous for the Easter eggs stashed in its products. What seems an ordinary interface reveals itself to be something else entirely with the right set of keystrokes
Google has hired industry legend Noah Falstein (Sinistar, Fate of Atlantis) to be its "Chief Game Designer". And won't say why. Google Glass games? First-party Android development? Bigger/better search engine tie ins?
Criticisms of YouTube's automated "takedown" process are nothing new. The way Google handles complaints against clips, whether by rights holders or concerned parties, is basically to shoot first and ask questions later.
You could tell from the marketing video
Former Epic designer Cliff Bleszinski (not pictured) has been selected by an "independent panel" to be one of the first 8000 people in the world to get a pair of Google's potentially pioneering/ridiculous wearable computers, Google Glass.
At GDC today, YouTube basically said it has seen how many people are watching other people play games on services like Twitch.tv, and is now serious about getting in on that action.
The 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake
You spend a lot of time looking at GIFs. Sports. Cats. NES games. NSFW stuff. Sometimes you have to dig and dig looking for what you want. But, according to The Week, now Google has added new search filters that will make finding those silent, bite-sized animations even easier. The details are in this Google+ post:
Originally, the Wikipad—an Android tablet with a custom controller dock—was supposed to come out last Halloween. But October 31st came and went with no Wikipads in any store anywhere. But the hybrid portable is alive and will be showing up in a smaller, less expensive form this spring.
Wonder no more. Part of an Iwata Asks section over on Nintendo's website, celebrating the launch of Google's Wii Street U on the Wii U.
