oh, if you haven't seen it, SXSWbaby! is go. (are you going?) I've been having fun looking through everyone's pictures from last year. It would be cool to do something with pictures on the sxswb site. hmm.

yay! another FOJM photo from me.

You too can improve your media literacy with a trip to culturefreak.com. I especially like the gallery of American marketing detritus and the glossary of marketing related terms. [via your ad here] Now I must consume a superpremium meal solution at its EDLP (cheap!).

Changes and is changing
Always in this world.
Yet with the same light
The moon goes on shining.

So I was sitting around the house tonight with some friends watching Fritz Lang's movie M (from 1931). Suddenly, a little girl rode into a scene on what appeared to be a razor scooter. That's right, a little girl in Germany in the early 1930's on the latest breakthrough in skate technology - a razor scooter! We stopped the film and backed it up. Yep, we were seeing it right: steel frame, 2 small wheels, handle to steer. Kinda makes this lawsuit seem silly. (I think that's what they call prior art.) If only the scooter in M had a brake on the rear wheel, it could be worth $10,000.

I'm trying out a new comment system. I wrote most of it yesterday for another project. I'm sure there are still bugs in the system, so if you run into any here let me know. (and thanks!) To comment on this post (or any post) just click the little "comment" link below. Pretty simple. Give it a try! :)

part of a conversation from last night:

skp: you should redesign your site.
pb: why? you don't like it?
skp: well, you could give it a new, sleek look.
pb: it isn't sleek now?
skp: isn't it more old school?
pb: what do you mean by old school?
skp: well, it's been like that for a long time.
pb: true.
