Well Played, AnnCast!

Has anyone else noticed the lack of reaction from American Gaming websites, eg. G4, IGN, etc.? I took a quick tour of gaming sites and none, that I've found, have any sort of call for aid for Japan. No banners. No links to the Red Cross or similar relief/aid agencies. Nothing.

Frankly, I'm both surprised and terribly dismayed. Given how gargantuan the gaming community is, and how it's linked with Japan, one would think there would be a least some kind of response.

How very disappointing.

I think you need to take a closer look. G4 has links to charity groups that you can access via its home page. IGN is doing a 24 hour gaming marathon fundraiser which you can access via its home page, and Zac mentioned IGN's efforts the podcast.

Yeah--when I checked it later today (just after I got done posting) I noticed.
