“Some people, I think they’re called racists, say America is not ready for a black president. But I know America to be a forward-thinking country because otherwise why would you have let that retarded cowboy fella be president for eight years? We were very impressed.

Talking Heads - Psycho Killer

pterodactyls says:

Argument: Best version of Psycho Killer? (from Stop Making Sense)

 Played 15 times.

Long Tail author Chris Anderson to use Tumblr

Anderson, a man I hugely respect (and, less importantly, editor of Wired), is set to incorporate Tumblr into his website as he microblogs examples of “free” that he comes across as he’s writing his new book on the subject of “why $0.00 is the future of business”.

School of Everything

Great piece from Boing Boing about a new service that allows anyone who wants to learn about a subject to find tutors, teachers, experts etc.  “eBay for knowledge” - a great idea.
