Hey, Dr. Spaceman Edition
Todays links of interest:
- Virginia gunman sent video diatribe to NBC
This is just so chilling and scary, it nearly beggars belief. - What’s going to happen to shows like "Law and Order," "Veronica Mars," "Friday Night Lights" and more?
Not official, by any means, but very much likely. Which is why, even though some of us are enjoying "Drive," we wonder if there is any point, especially after "Andy Barker" seemed doomed from the start. - AOL uploads slate of TV-style shows
We will be keeping an eye on this, as well as wondering if high-powered interactive games count as TV shows, or something else entirely. - Report: Time Warner may cut cable holdings
If true, this would be good news for those who are currently Time Warner cable subscribers. - A night without CrackBerry: Curse or blessing?
Yes. - London Calling: Lonelygirl15 Spinoff "KateModern" Launches in UK
Or, if you will, we may be witnessing the dawn of the next major studio. Okay, fine, hyperbole. It’s early. Sue me. - Music CD sales fall 13 pct through 2006 in U.S.
Which reminds us…we haven’t heard an update on the Universal plan to save the CD by improving packaging. - Paint Drying? Sorry, Wrong Link. This Is Cheddarvision.
Once again, YouTubers prove that major media entertainment isn’t what they really want these days. - Tragedy at Va. Tech
For all our snarking about the MySpace and Facebook, they showed the power of instant communication and extended community in the wake of the Virginia Tech massacre.
