Of course I've been tangentially wittering about this as I talk about personal aggregation (itself threatened by the likes of Friendfeed), but this is a good post about the death of the home page. To some extent it's stating the obvious, but then … More

EPIServer, eh? Lots of interesting nuggets in this, and that's just on a skimreading. I'm surprised the decision to paywall just gets a sidenote, though.

On BBC Two's White Season: "The BBC has made a grave error in locating the problems of Britain's poorest and most pressurised people in race rather than class." Sounds about right to me.

The catchy-image-as-art is part of the culture of ffffound as much as it is of digg (and it seems to be getting worse over time). The utter lack of text and context don't exactly help either.

Vanity Fair: Going After Gore, by Evgenia Peretz
http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2007/10/gore200710?printable=true¤tPage=all
-
Not rated yet.

Deeply depressing article on the coverage of the 2000 US election, and how the media laid into Gore and gave "the irresistable frat boy" an easy pass. Just because he'd have a drink with them.

The (soon to reopen, hopefully) museum has put what looks like its entire poster archive (certainly hundreds of them) online for browsing and purchasing (in A3/A4). Lovely.

John Humphrys: On the threat to 'Today'

Scathing putdown of Channel 4. I wish the Humphrys interview on Today last week had been so biting.

Media Guardian | Situation Crtitical
