I can't stand modern first-person shooters. I'm so inept at them. Some friends cajoled me into playing Halo for a while and it was just embarrassing. That, and so many of them seem to be 'stumbling around in the dark' simulators.
Perspectives other than first person seem to be okay-ish.

www::finger
WWW::Finger(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation WWW::Finger(3pm)
NAME
WWW::Finger - get useful data from e-mail addresses
SYNOPSIS
use WWW::Finger;
my $finger = WWW::Finger->new("joe@example.com");
if (defined $finger)
{
print $finger->name . "
";
}
DESCRIPTION
This module is not an implementation of the finger protocol (RFC 1288). Use Net::Finger for that. Instead it is a set of implementations
of other methods for getting information from an e-mail address, or e-mail like identifier. This package includes four such
implementations, and it's pretty easy to create your own additional implementations:
o WebFinger
o Fingerpoint
o MetaCPAN API for cpan.org addresses
o Unnamed finger protocol described on bitworking.org
Constructor
o "new"
$finger = WWW::Finger->new($identifier);
Creates a WWW::Finger object for a particular identifier. Will return undef if no implemetation is able to handle the identifier
Object Methods
Any of these methods can return undef if the appropriate information is not available. The "name", "mbox", "homepage", "weblog", "image"
and "key" methods work in both scalar and list context. Depending on which implementation was used by "WWW::Finger->new", the object may
also have additional methods. Consult the documentation of the various implementations for details.
"name"
The person's name (or handle/nickname).
"mbox"
The person's e-mail address (including "mailto:").
"homepage"
The person's personal homepage.
"weblog"
The person's blog. (There may be some overlap with "homepage".)
"image"
An avatar, photo or other image depicting the person.
"key"
The URL of the person's GPG/PGP public key.
"webid"
A URI uniquely identifying the person. See <http://esw.w3.org/topic/WebID>.
"endpoint"
A SPARQL Protocol endpoint which may provide additional data about the person. (See RDF::Query::Client.)
"graph"
An RDF::Trine::Model object holding data about the person. (See RDF::Trine.)
