Ricky Gervais Tweets to Mr./Ms. Religion

  Lance looses sponsors, Mittens goes postal on binders, but this may be the best part of this week. And it is still only Thursday. Oh what will Friday bring?

Calling this One as a YouTube Hit Bump

Something about this fellow in the current Southern Comfort ad campaign that makes me smile and think that this is going to be a larger item than a posted ad on YouTube in the weeks to come. Fall might be here, but I can always relive summer with my own doppelgänger. One of the comments sums this up the best:

Remembering The Old Days

When I started working with the Internet, I had only one option – the Mosaic Browser. Then came Netscape which seemed like a leap to me at the time.

Forever Does Not Compute

I don’t know if you have noticed or not, but the forever scrolling has ceased on Facebook. Thanks sweet Molasses. I never did like that fill as you go option and would say to any client with confidence that it is a trendy thing like the <BLINK> tag.

Rick Mercer helps to show how you can swab the takeover to find out if Bell’s expanding reach has taken its effect. . From Wikipedia: Bell Media’s largest division is Bell Media Television, which

Don’t Tweet This

I guess it was only a matter of time before the meld of hip hop and social media happened. For me the idea of a song about not using social media at a party is not only groovin, but might work to educate some folks that not everything in life needs to be captured online.
