Kind of crazy. I didn’t expect to see people get financial success streaming games.

I must be getting old, I just don't understand how/why streaming & followers make you money.

Then again, I didn’t think Angry Birds would ever be much of anything, so there’s that. :-P

Angry Birds... I just... I can't... I don't... I mean, it's the very first thing you do when you have your physics engine up and running, you throw something at a pile of blocks, you essentially make the equivalent of angry birds as one of the first tests/demos of your shiny little physics engine that you've coded up. I don't understand why it's so successful, must be marketing to kids or something.
