Jay Van Beveren is living the American Dream 2.0. You might remember him from his stint on a podcast called ‘Uncle Gamer Radio’ or his current participation in ‘Remember When’. Now his business card now reads “Project Manager, Promethium Marketing.” Our discussion covers the success of ‘Remember When’, how his perspectives on the industry have changed with his current job and he offers up some details on latest pride of Promethium Marketing – Tweet Defense. Because Jay wouldn’t have it any other way, there are plenty of tangents in this episode. I hope you can keep up with us. Enjoy.

Every week I grace this small slice of the Internet with a rather lengthy post about a random video game topic of my choosing. What you don’t see along with the blood, sweat and tears is the man behind the proper grammar. Spoiler Alert – It’s not me. Each one of my submissions is analyzed with a fine tooth comb by my fake boss at Talking About Games, Larry. Larry is the Editor in Chief of Talking About Games. He makes sure the text you read on that site has all kinds of sentence structure and other kinds of grammatical goodness. It’s not easy, but I’m glad he’s around to keep all of the writing staff in check…and in good standing with the MLA.

Gamer’s Garage co-host Tommy checks out Microsoft’s Gameroom demo, recently announced at CES 2010 in Las Vegas, Nevada.  We appologize for the poor audio.

B-19. This week I’m getting my “Gov 2.0″ on with some help from David Hale (@lostonroute66). He is a project manager and social media strategist for the National Library of Medicine which means we will be breaking out a lot of buzzwords and acronyms as we discuss how the USGovernment is starting to leverage social media including the pros and cons of using these various technologies. Other topics include South by Southwest Interactive (SXSW), the Semantic Web, something called “High Speed Highway Halo”, and finding the perfect cupcake in Washington D.C.

And just to be clear, the thoughts and comments expressed by David on this podcast do not reflect that of the Department of Health and Human Services or any other government agency. After all, we’re Just Talking.

As I walked around the floor of CES, I stopped by Razor, since I had talked to them last year, to see what they had this time around.  At their booth, they had a new Xbox 360 controller called the Onza, which I tested out with a little Halo 3: Firefight.  Let me tell you, with the ability to tighten up on the grips, it gave more precision to the shooting.  I was able to turn faster without going into the settings, and the ability to change around the buttons to my liking allowed me to add jump and crouch functions as I chose.  Reaction time has no lag whatsoever either.  Sure, the controller’s wired, but considering that Razor is behind some of the best PC mouses (and other peripherals) out there, I’m not complaining.  It really shows with this controller.

Hit the jump to learn more about this sweet controller.
