Funny "news" story directly related to our discussion on Thursday about manipulation of crowd shots, stock footage, etc.

Alyssa, Tomas, and I found this amazing video remix of the "I Love My Hair" Sesame Street segment. This is just entertaining because the Willow Smith song is so catchy, but the actual Sesame Street video is on there too for those interested.

Meant to be funny, but interesting to consider. Could probably spend all term on this binary.

Browsing this site the other week made me go buy way too many ingredients and make late-night cheesecake bites. So, it kind of did "sell" something...

Just came across this really interesting article on the idea of using new media as a crowd-sourcing tool and how (as the author argues) it takes away from face-to-face connections and the value of the public sphere. While I do not necessarily agree with things he is saying, I think this ties in a lot to what we talked about last class.
