Improving Tumblr
Just a few minutes ago, I noticed a rather lengthy post on my dashboard that I would like to read but lack the desire or time to do so at that minute. Then it dawned on me that “liking” - which has been derided by vocal sections of the Tumblverse as a useless display for tepid enthusiasm - would be perfect as an internal bookmarking feature for users. Perhaps the implementation would...

But the producer is not Amy Sherman-Palladino or Daniel Palladino. An interesting little glimpse into what went down behind the scenes on that show, leading to the creators getting kicked off after the sixth season. Coincidentally, the WB claims that the only season the show ran a profit was the seventh, the one without the creators attached. (N.B. This is not actually...
I wish I were the Moon, a free indie puzzle game →
(via loszambos)
This is the best game I played in this entire year, and it is inspired by Calvino’s The Distance of the Moon. It’s online and Flash-based, so it supports pretty much any operating system. It’s absolutely ingenious and brief; don’t take “puzzle” to mean it is similar to Tetris, because it a fairly big departure, but still extremely accessble.

This should be posted in Fuck Yeah! Ryan Gosling, but Ryan Gosling’s rock duo, Dead Man’s Bones is pretty awesome.
Fairly Waitsian stuff, I dig. There better be some appearances at The Echo in the near future.
Also, I am pretty sure I saw him at Sunset Junction two or three years ago.
And if I were booking for Fallon’s new show or O’Brien’s new show, I might...

A while back, Bob Woodword said that the army has some crazy new technology that would blow our minds if we knew about it, but he couldn’t say anything because of an NDA, or something. He said the leap in technology is like the leap from gas lamps to electric, or something; I don’t remember the analogy, I just remember being impressed. In Paris, my friend Jared and I drunkenly...

Please, please, please let this not come out.
B-b-b-but Zach Synder is a “visionary director,” because the movie trailer for the film told me so. And My Chemical Romance are covering a Bob Dylan tune.
What could go wrong there? Next you are going to say that the Super Mario Bros. movie missed the point of the game.

If you are planning on seeing the movie, you might want to read this first. This is the 1922 short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald (yeah, the Gatsby guy) that the movie is based off of.
The short story is just as great as the movie.
