A Brief History of Star Trek Games
Note: all 3 links in this post are now broken. Left as originally published.
From a cult classic of 1960s television to present-day blockbuster, Star Trek has managed to maintain a sizable audience over the decades; and add to it consistently with strategic changes to the formulae that makes it so popular. One of the most prominent reasons for Star Trek’s success is its ability to cobble together so many different facets of storytelling into one neat package to appeal to a broad, but not disconnected, audience.

Share any size file with MediaFire

Web site MediaFire is a free file hosting service that allows
unlimited file sizes and uploads, as well as unlimited downloads of
files.
The service is really well made, especially the upload progress
page, which gives you a nice view of your upload progress, speed, and
estimated time to complete the upload. Add to that the unlimited
everything for free, and you’ve got what looks like a pretty saucy file
sharing service. In the wake of YouSendIt migrating to more of a pay
service, a lot of readers have been looking for a new host; while there
are a lot of options available (see the comments), MediaFire is the only one I’ve seen with the unlimited upload size. -Adam Pash
