There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

"In Computational Media, I studied new media, worked with computers, and learned programming, as well as studied video games and movies, making them and studying theory," said Mae Tidman, a recent graduate of Georgia Tech's Computational Media program. "I'm prepared to do multiple parts of a game, including design and programming."
Tidman is looking for the right job after having had several interviews and lining up a few more. She's bucking the trend of many of her classmates who have fled to the West Coast and hoping that her diverse skill set and enthusiasm will help her nail a job in the Atlanta area, where there's a growing gaming industry.
