The internet on cruise ships costs a pretty penny.  I just spent more than I want to think about checking work emails while at sea. But the cost makes sense–the cost not only includes the infrastructure to maintain an internet connection at sea, but also ensures too many people aren’t …

One of my favorite iOS games has been Kingdom Rush–a tower defense game where you must protect villages from varying mythical creatures / fantasy characters.
