- Twitter Blog: Acceptance Speeches: The Tweets Are In! - The Twitterverse has spoken! (Quite a bit, in fact.)
- Found Footage: Japan's Answer To RoboCop Walks Funny - "A cyborg made up of pieces of a few dead gangsters can only defend himself against gunfire if he stands sideways with one hand covering his face, in this bizarre scene from Full Metal Yakuza. Directed by legendary cult cinema maniac Takashi Miike, Full Metal stars a dead yakuza whose head is sewn onto the torso of his dead friend, whose tattoos are a little patchy now because some other corpses are included. Below, another clip where the cyborg takes out a small yakuza army, armed only with a samurai sword."
- A letter from myself, age 13 - Matt Heerema : Web Design - Why didn't my class president do something like this? Waitaminute… Who WAS my class president? Did we even have one? I wonder what I would have predicted. I can't even remember what I was like at age 13, to be honest. (via Brian)
- 5 Creepiest, Scariest TV Monsters | Pop Vultures - The "weeping angels" from the Doctor who episode "Blink" make the list at #3, and rightly so… they were TERRIFYING. This is the episode I show everyone when I want to turn them into a Doctor Who fan. Jessica STILL screams every time she turns around and sees me making the "weeping angel face."
- Cult - News - Cabrera keen on 'Heroes' return - Digital Spy - "Santiago Cabrera has revealed that he would love his character Issac Mendez to return in Heroes. The actor, who left the show after the first season, said he is optimistic that the writers might come up with a scenario that would allow him to reprise the role."
- Heroes Season 3 Promo Images! - Superhero Hype! - These promo images have been posted around Grand Central for the last week or so, and now that Jessica and I have been catching up with Season Two, I'm excited for the third season to come around. I'm not all that impressed with the second season thus far, but I'm not ready to abandon the series just yet. I think it has a some great potential and I'm willing to chalk up the second season's negatives to the chaos of the WGA strike.

- What Web Journalists Can Learn from Comics | Xconomy - I don't quite believe that "perhaps Web comics aren’t flowering (outside of McCloud’s opus) because drawing well is simply harder than writing well. Or perhaps it’s because we still equate comics with Superman and Batman." — But I did enjoy this article about McCloud's Google comic and was really amused by this line: "A lot of Silicon Valley companies, when they’re launching big new products, will rent a hotel ballroom, erect a glitzy set, and invite a bunch of journalists and pundits to a scripted dog-and-pony show. Chrome’s launch may mark the first time in history that a company simply hired a comic book artist instead."
- My Documents Laptop Sleeve | GeekAlerts - I WANT. … But I probably wouldn't go back and forth to work with it, I'll admit. (via Michael)
