Projects

Embrace digital technology. Join the Tekzilla crew and make your tech work better for you. Or you can go live in the woods with an axe. Every Saturday, Patrick Norton and Veronica Belmont deliver product reviews, computer help, tech tips on everything from iPods to camcorders, HD to the Internet, plus do it yourself projects.

Qore: Presented by the PLAYSTATION Network is a highly interactive gaming lifestyle monthly video production that covers the world inside PLAYSTATION available only on the PLAYSTATION Store. It features interviews with game developers and personalities, exclusive betas and demos, as well as info on the newest Blu-ray releases. Qore is produced by Future U.S. (publishers of PLAYSTATION: The Official Magazine, OXM and Nintendo Power).

The Sword and Laser is a science fiction and fantasy themed book club, hosted by Tom Merritt and Veronica Belmont. We select books either by a democratic vote or by dictatorial rule (depending on our mood) and then discuss them in our forums. There is also a companion podcast posted bi-weekly.
