This worldview is directly inline with our city’s best and brightest. Nick, don’t worry, it will be easy to recruit someone better than Emily and Choire; as the months march on, the pool of creative youngsters who are willing to turn themselves into professional …

It’s now official. There is now absolutely nothing about blogging that doesn’t seriously disturb us.
While trolling Flickr for Creative Commons imagery to misappropriate in the name of satire we came across this. This is exactly what our nightmares look like. Shannon, the office shrink, says that it might have something to do with all the Dick Tracy we watched when we were younger.

Here is a list of the titles for Facebook Articles that we hope to use in the next couple of weeks. The posts are already written, we just need help from the punditry to fill in the sound bytes.
We had some more, but those were mostly stuffed with keywords like Anne Hudgens. The SEO guys in the other department say those are real winners. If you have any other suggestions, leave them here.

Blogging is about making things up! That’s why we’re here folks. Look at Valleywag or …

Hey cats and kittens, I just wanted to tell you about this little wonder of technology that I just got my hot little hands on. They’re calling it a Kindle and let me tell you, I haven’t seen this sort of earth shattering technology since I “bumped into” that Girl Scout to get the last copy of Man Hunt 2 from Gamestop.
