Spotted this track in the background of the trailer for the new movie about Facebook, and had to buy it immediately!  It&#8217;s a young women&#8217;s choir called Scala performing Radiohead&#8217;s &#8220;Creep.&#8221;  You want to listen to this, trust me.

Lawrence Yang documents the obvious problem with Verizon&#8217;s $100 million integrated ad campaign for the Google/Droid phone.  He was inspired by Nancy Friedman, who is a delight to read.
(Be sure also to read Nancy&#8217;s linked discussion of anthimeria, which is, loosely speaking, when someone verbs a noun.)
(Below: the actual $100 million ad campaign.)

If you&#8217;re local to Somerville (like some of us are, or were), then you&#8217;ve hopefully enjoyed a fantastic breakfast at either or both of Sound Bites and the Ball Square Caf&#233;.

Friend of the blog Tim Anderson bubbles up in a New York Times article about Kombucha (a drink many NII bloggers were enjoying back in the mid-90&#8217;s thanks to Shwilly B!):
Kombucha’s popularity has also attracted home brewers. Tim Anderson, founder of a 3D printer technology company, moved from Boston to Berkeley, Calif., with his “mother” [...]]]></description>

Via BoingBoing, I came across The Kisseloff Collection, which is author Jeff Kisseloff&#8217;s collection of photos and stories stretching back through the 1920&#8217;s.  Some of the photos are gorgeous, some are disturbing, and some are just weird:

Jeff writes about working with Alger Hiss in the early 1970&#8217;s, and [...]]]></description>

Christine Smallwood, writing at the Baffler blog, examines the question, &#8220;What Does the Internet Look Like?&#8221;  It&#8217;s a long way from the question to the answer, and the journey is well worth it.

So&#8230; speaking with occasional NII blogger Dan, I mentioned in an off-hand fashion that breakfast cereals were developed to help curb masturbation.  True story!
Wanting some backup for my outlandish-sounding claims, I did a quick Google search for &#8216;cereal masturbation&#8217;, which quickly led me to the Wikipedia entry for John Harvey Kellogg, M.D..
Kellogg didn&#8217;t invent [...]]]></description>
