Clay Shirky stole my idea

Or rather, I had the inklings of the same idea years ago when I realized the video games and interactive media, turbo-charged with fast networks, are more active and participatory than TV or, dare I say, books and printed materials.

Wright is (was?) the only thing stopping Obama

Finally Obama denounces Rev. Wright. It's about time.

I completely understand why Rev. Wright is so bent on ruining Obama's campaign. Obama as president is a terrible idea for racists like Wright: it robs the pastor of much of his raison d'être. What a complete and utter moron. Why do people tolerate people like Wright? Because if they don't, they are automatically labeled as racists.
