I got a kick out of
genattack!. A, presumably, fictionalized account of building a giant robot. Adding to the entertainment value:
monkey references. Look, I'm not saying it's the best thing going, I'm just saying that 99% of the time I click on the recently updated blog list I'm treated to a steaming pile of feces loaded, typically, with overfancy designs, cringeworthy use of terms like "kewlies", and paypal donation buttons. As if.
