On U MAD??? Evgeny Morozov, The Internet, And The Failure Of Invective

Shorter Maria “Not Mentioning ‘Dorkismo’ Anymore” Bustillos: Lovable dreadlocked teddybear Jaron Lanier’s book is a tonic for our times despite its “serious weaknesses,” many more of which were documented by other reviewers, while the well-reviewed Morozov is overdue to be knocked down a peg.

On From "Epic Fail: Bad Art, Viral Fame, and the History of the Worst Thing Ever"

Is this rationally presented as the “typography” of this soi-disant “ebook”?

if so, how dare they charge for it? I usually download U.S. government MS Word documents for free.

On How Does "Fringe" End? (Or, *When* Does "Fringe" End?)

I think the pitfall that Lost, X-Files, Dollhouse, V, Firefly, Heroes and Battlestar Galactica need to avoid is being rendered in neutral double quotes like somebody with a manual typewriter they deem too complex to learn.
