Ken and I have been putting together a new podcast, Unlimited Podcast Works, which is hosted over in the podcast section of Heavens Feel. Every week we record a show we have a number of guests, each of whom brings their own topic for us to discuss. You can listen and subscribe to it if you like, and let me know if you'd like to discuss something during one of the shows (our topics of discussion for the program are videogames, Japanese animation, and Japan). The only things you'd need to participate are a microphone, skype, and high-speed internet.
PROTIP: Even if you don't have a dedicated microphone, you can use any usb console microphone (for ps3, xbox, or wii) on your computer. Just plug it in and it'll be recognized as a usb microphone and you will be good to go.

I put together a guide to Maid fashion. It's very useful if you are interested in the types of Maid fashion, or if you are an Akihabara fan, or if you want to play a maid in an RPG. You can view and download the pdf here.

The semester has come to an end but we have good news for everyone! Next semester nearly all of our meetings will be returning to the theatre-esque Moore Auditorium and those that aren't will be in larger rooms than past years. In other news, we have the dates set for FreeCon 2008! Like past years, we will be hosting it in the Student Services Building at FSU and this year we'll be invading their space the weekend of April 5-6.

Coming up at the end of the month is our big Halloween meeting. Traditionally we have people come out in their cosplay and strut their stuff for a prize and we'll be continuing that tradition this year. We hope to have a good turnout and may be extending our Halloween festivities to a full day event. We'll keep you posted on that plan.
