The Social Network
I saw the Social Network tonight. A good portion of the movie was a trip down memory lane. There were cameo appearances by LiveJournal, Linux, KDE (featuring Keramik window decorations), and Perl scripts. It's rare to see a movie in which they get the technical details right -- it enhances my own personal enjoyment of the movie ( Read more... ) -

"Long Live the New Flesh!"
Damn it. I made the mistake of getting my wife to watch Videodrome. It was meant to be a precursor to a documentary I'm eventually going to show her: We Live in Public.

Why I Have a LiveJournal
So I got a LiveJournal. Either this is a sign of my own narcissism or a furtherance of self-expression. God knows I've got enough blogs as it is. Why the hell am I doing this?
