The article is somewhat short on information which could compell the reader to check out the interview.
Maybe you could have mentioned that InstantAction will feature "console-quality" games and will use a new proprietary technology called Torque engine, rather than good ol' Flash.
Okay but it's not about torque only as you can use different gamedev technologies for it. It's more about distribution.
You could add a quote of something he said, which you found interesting and think is worth mentioning here.
Also I would have mentioned that it will release in January, is currently in Beta and that it aims at usability.
PS: I would be pissed if this gaming portal would not work with Opera :(
Okay i'll try to keep your points in mind for future news.
GarageGames has a long tradition of not delivering in time so i thought i better leave this out as it's likely that it will show up later. I've read that you should deliver 500-2000 characters for a news but personally i'm not sure if i would like to read this as if i'm interested in the news then i read it double and if not then it doesn't bother me.
As for Opera i think the most important is to get it running on the browsers which are more common first as well as that they are able to deliver reasonable content. Without content they have mostly nothing, with content it could work. But i found it quite interesting what they are trying to achieve with the investor's money as although their technology by far isn't the best one, it's used by quite some indies.
