  • Clip: Here are the first six minutes of The Dark Knight that will be out in theaters on July 18, 2008. If the opening 6 minutes is an indication of the film, then this will definitely be a huge summer blockbuster.
  • Democrat Sen. Barack Obama, frequently leaning on Bible passages, and Republican Sen. John McCain, sharply delineating his opposition to abortion, sought to burnish their Christian credentials with voters Saturday night in a civil forum at a California megachurch. The presidential candidates took very different approaches to the same set of questions by Rick Warren, pastor of Saddleback Community Church in Lake Forest, Calif., and author of the mega-selling Bible study book, The Purpose-Driven Life. The differences showed up most sharply in questions related to abortion. When Warren asked when life and human rights begin, McCain's succinct reply, "At conception," and mention of his pro-life voting track record were greeted with some of the loudest applause of the evening.

  • Wonderful, concise video that helps raise awareness of the issues of globalization in our newly connected world first raised in Thomas Friedman's book, The World is Flat.

  • The theme of parental mourning has been a universal one throughout the centuries. In the literature on bereavement, writers repeat certain themes, thoughts, and reflections; they talk of the powerful and often conflicting emotions involved in "the pain of grief and the spiral of mourning; [they refer to] the heartbreak at the heart of things…grief's contradictions"; they speak of parents devastated by grief (Moffat 1992, xxiii).
  • I’m hesitant to publish this post, not because I don’t think it’s important, but instead, I don’t want to be caught in the cross fire between Thomas Hawk and Simon B of the SF museum. My focus is on the online impacts, not the specific quarrel these two have around photographers rights, I wasn’t at the museum that day, so I really can’t comment on what happened.

  • Remember the Yahoo Overture keyword selector tool? It was an easy way to plug in a keyword and get a figure on estimated traffic for the prior month. Towards the end of its life, it was usually a month or two behind and then finally, Yahoo just abandoned it. Hmm – product abandonment. That seems to happen a lot at Yahoo. Anyway, with all its faults, the Overture Keyword Tools was a quick handy way to get some idea of how much traffic any given keyword might yield in any given month. When Yahoo took that away, it left us pretty much without anything among the big 3 search engines. Perry Marshall’s email the other day alerted me to the fact that Google Adwords now does what Overture used to do (and much better of course). It shows the prior month volume and also an estimate average monthly volume. Below is a screen shot where I used the keyword “home based business”.

  • It's an RPG. The Weight Watchers program is designed precisely like a role-playing dungeon crawler. That's why people love it, stick to it and have success with it. And it points to the way that we could use game design to make life's drudgery more bearable. Let me unpack this a bit. When I asked my friend to see how Weight Watchers works, she showed me the ingenious system. "The best part is the web tool," she said, pulling it up on her laptop.
