Minecraft

I built mine right next to my spawn, and I'm in the process of making a long highway of bridges and stone cairns fitted with torches to find my way around. The plan is to make a wooden cabin every four or so cairn. I'm also making some big underground halls, but that process is stopped by mobs that's spawning inside of my cave. There's no entrance, so it seems like they can spawn pretty much anywhere that's open enough. I'm going to try to set up more torches, to see if that can help.
Great fun to build, but the mobs doesn't seem to do anything else than keep me away from the fun. If fighting them were more rewarding, or the posed some other challenge than being in the way of big constructions, I could see the point. Right now they're just annoying.
Scandanavian War Machine:
One of he recent updates included the ability to craft a compass that poins towards your spawn.
it involves steel and redstone, I believe. Very helpful.

In my second world, a winter world, I made my first home in a cluster of giant trees. I went up the trunk and hollowed out the canopy, and now I have a gorgeous two-storey treehouse with an extra stargazing room at the top. Here is a virtual tour. The immediate underlying area is crawling with caves and rich in iron ore, but very low in monsters. After going quite deep I came across a room that was crawling with monsters, so I set up a second base just before that with a bunch of furnaces for smelting. Then I dug a vertical tunnel straight up to the surface, which was only a dozen blocks away from my treehouse by coincidence. I crafted a full set of iron armor and embarked in the infested tunnel, which held ores of iron, gold, diamond and redstone, and then a spider jumped onto my face and I fell in lava.
This all happened in about 24 hours. Minecraft is the best.

That will help, monsters span in the darkness.
How far down do I have dig for iron?

I found these two topics recently, and they're very helpful to newbies like me, someone else may find use of them:

about iron depths, from that second link was this: Iron: "Normal up to 64, virtually none at 67, none at 68"
also, apparently since this free weekend Notch has been making a ton of revenue of ppl buying this game. at this current rate it's approximately $2million a day, and he's kept it constantish for a few hours. And paypal had to set up a queue for all the traffic coming to his account.
