One of the reasons why I like Jimmy Fallon’s late night show is because there is a major focus on technology and gaming. When Jimmy had Robin Williams on his show earlier this week, they talked about how Williams was a fan of gaming. Williams talked about how he enjoyed playing Call of Duty and cracked a few jokes about playing online. Interestingly, Williams named his kids after characters in video games too. His daughter is named Zelda. How cool is that?
