Whatnot:

• Jeff Katz at New Line has written a 20-page treatment for Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash. Hail to the king, baby.
  
  
• N is a brilliant and totally free Flash game, reminiscent of Lode Runner but powered by a nifty physics engine. You're a little ninja collecting little gold boxes to extend your 90-second lifespan while avoiding well-meaning but poorly programmed robots. The muted geometry of the visual style is very appealing, there are 300 levels (grouped into 60 five-episode levels)), and the ninja dies in wonderfully undignified ways. Download! Play! (N.B.: The difficulty level ramps up steeply as you play, but it resets every 10 episodes. If you're as frustrated by episode 9 as I was, know that it will get easy again in episode 10.)
  
  
• Zoom is a nifty collaborative art project, which elysdir has likened to Escher's Metamorphosis—with the axis of travel being into the page instead of side-to-side.
  

In other news, I successfully installed 256MB of SDRAM in K.'s laptop today, tripling her available memory. I feel so handy. 128MB really isn't enough for OS X; the poor little Chiclet was relying far too heavily on virtual memory, which slowed everything down. Now it's quite zippy.
