October 21, 2009 Linkature View Comments

Getting the world to cycle together with good deeds- another step towards internet-fueled utopia.  I have to admit- I got chills when a colleague showed me this.  I feel like this might be a small step towards something much more important- or maybe this very product will evolve into something more substantive.  For now the good deeds… Read More

I took what Hawkes wrote last week to heart, and I took time to let the balloon boy hullabaloo set in. (Full Confession: It doesn’t hurt that I am in England and had minimal internet connectivity until now.) And what this time off helped me to see is what balloon boy really needed: a mix to… Read More

HBO just put out a brand new sort of video experience. It’s pretty amazing to say the least if not just a touch confusing. Essentially, you find yourself in a big 3d web of thin lines, and attaching all of them together are some boxes and cubes. Each cube has a short snippet of a movie from… Read More

1. FILM Bright Star

I felt like I watched the sumptuous evolution of a lifetime of romance all encapsulated in two hours of screen time and in reality only two short years that comprised the doomed love affair of John Keats and Fanny Brawne.  Jane Campion has done quite a number, casting the beguiling Abbie Cornish… Read More

In procrastinating packing for my pending trip to England, I started to think about all of the traveling I’ve done as of late. And it’s actually quite a lot.

10 Songs For 100 Days Of Oil Spill

Tomorrow marks 100 days since the BP oil spill in the gulf. I know they “successfully” capped it, but as long as that sucker is still leaking, I’m saying there is still an oil spill.
