- Clive Cussler must pay $13.9M in legal fees over Sahara debacle. I wonder what he's actually worth?
- Inflatable Trans Am. Not what I normally think of when I read 'transmedia', but hey.
- Michelle Obama at Miriam's Kitchen. This is the soup kitchen I used to do design work for in DC. Cool!
- Delia Sherman on pitching novels. Good advice.
- The Cult of Done Manifesto. When you're overloaded, "done is the engine of more" sounds awful.
- Bob Rehak on Timeshifting. I've been wondering how TiVo affects Dollhouse's ratings, but the buzz is still weak. Next week's ep might be the turning point, though.
- The Onion on the Kindle. Heaving!
- Philip Pullman on a virtuous nation. Excellent stuff.
- Amber Benson on persistence. "Boobs McBooberton"?
- The Coraline Economy. How Laika saved Portland.
- Downturn is "a petri dish for innovation" for magazines. And other things, you betcha.
- How to write a Sci-Fi Channel original movie. Oldie but goodie.
- Jericho goes transmedia. Another case study, coming right up.
- NYT on crossing America in a train. Want.
- Salman Rushdie on adaptations. Filing this away for a future book...
- The New Yorker on David Foster Wallace. Still so damn heartbreaking.
- Pattie Maes at TED. The sixth sense indeed.
