...partnered with two other NYU film grads. None of us were technologists. The epiphanous moment came when we were sitting around a computer and someone was demo-ing the Mosaic browser and said, "Look, we're now on a computer in Sweden." When you go through art school, all your friends become struggling artists, and the thing that restricts your ability to pursue your art or craft is distribution. The writer needs the publisher; the musician needs the label. All of a sudden there was this medium, and we could completely disintermediate the communication process. For us, that was like...
Like the meerkats, Manor is an odd beast. The crew is forbidden to intervene, and the producers don't sugarcoat the animals' less cuddly habits (infidelity, abandonment of young, occasional cannibalism). But the meerkats are named and given human traits ("courageous," "caring," "bully[ing]"), and their antics and tragedies take place over a sound track.

In a different study conducted by Solutions Research Group, 34% of viewers between the ages of 12-34 were text messaging or IM'ing from their cell phones while watching the NBA finals this year...
...that comic over there? He SUCS. Bet you never heard that as a compliment. But among those familiar with Harvard Stand-Up Comic Society (HSUCS), it’s considered high praise indeed. HARVARD: SUCS-ING SINCE JANUARY 2007While the club was originally recognized at the beginning of 2007, its founding members—alumnus David W. Ingber ’07 and Harrison R. Greenbaum ’08—were already participating in a growing comedic presence on Harvard’s campus. Greenbaum, a magician by trade who was later bitten by the stand...
