...what are the newly arrived grownups doing now on Facebook? My previously dormant account suddenly began filling up in May with "friends"--journalists, Silicon Valley networkaholics, a guy in Australia who sometimes comments on my blog, plus a few important people like my ex-boss. Facebook's News Feed updates me on whom these people have befriended, where they're vacationing, whether they went on a bike ride today, and the like.

He's more hyper than Emeril, more cheerful than Rachael Ray, more street than Bobby Flay and cockier than all of them combined. "Do I think I have that much charisma? I think I have more...
...snap up Yi Jianlian, another seven footer from China - albeit a more athletic one who has been compared to NBA all-star (and German import) Dirk Nowitzki. And like Yao before him, he is already surrounded by a sense of intrigue and anticipation. Web sites from Hooplah... Nation-a blog dedicated to the New Jersey Nets-to ESPN and SI.com have already speculated endlessly on just how good Yi is, how old he is (Yi says 19, but some teammates from the Guangdong Tigers, the China Basketball Association team he plays for, say he?s 22),and most importantly, just...
