Awesomesauce: My 13 Video Game Names Story

My latest mental_floss story, How 13 Classic Video Games Got Their Names, has been pretty successful, including some great Twitter links and even a couple of reprints.  Here are some of the highlights:

This is the second time Guy Kawasaki has linked to one of my stories!

This is also the second time the childhood crush of most guys my age, Alyssa Milano, has linked to one of my stories.  We’re old friends now, I think…

Neatorama linked to the story.  And, for the first time ever, I got reprinted by The Atlantic.

The story was also the most popular story of the week at mental_floss, which hasn’t happened in a while.

Of course all of this just means that the expectations will be high for my next inevitable bomb…
