Jun. 14th, 2005 03:11 pmSince I'm about to need to reboot, let's list the interesting tidbits that I have sitting in tabs right now:
The Wikipedia project has apparently spawned Wikinews, an attempt to build a collaborative, less-biased news site for the masses. I'm rather skeptical, but intrigued -- it bears some watching to see where this goes.
editrx posted a fascinating but slightly creepy observation entitled Soviet-style art meets Homeland Security. The more the world changes...
The Pennsic Class Schedule has been posted; be warned that it's quite long. I'm teaching four classes this year: one dance class and three on games.

tpau has reposted the handy-dandy Pennsic schedule booklets, suitable for painful realizations that you need to be doing four things simultaneously on Wednesday afternoon.

I posted a link yesterday to my other site that I think is one of the earliest references to those posters -- Articulatory Loop - and some of the comments there are quite interesting. Posters in the same style are also turning up in London and I think the London one is creepier and more Orwellian. Compare these with publications on the same theme from New York and Boston (.pdf file).
(Also, for good measure, I'll toss in this billboard which is part of an "awareness campaign" for Madision, WI.)
