I’m bumping up against the too-long-away-from-home mark. Can I have a collective sigh? I’ve done it to myself; I’m not complaining. Just a status update. So, here we go:
A couple more pics for you, and then I’m heading to O’Hare to finally go home. Later, ‘gators.
Float Away Scarves we showed on the show:
Sandi and Bertha:
For all of my bitterness on various weird science and health and safety issues, I am sticking with Fringe because all frustration vanishes when Mr. Jackson appears. It's his voice, I don't know why, but I love his voice. Although, Fringe does tend to just remind me that I miss X-Files.
Yes! On all counts. He definitely has one of those voices. And I'm reminded
quite clearly of the X-Files. And a bit of Alias (the early eps, at least; I
stopped watching after a bit).
Totally agree with your take on the Folio show and the three types of people: web, print, and business. I think the best combo are the online-only people who get web and business, or people in traditional media companies who get all three. They know that readers talking with readers is a great thing that helps create a brand. They know a web site has to be worthwhile and contribute to the community … not just take from it. And they're not afraid of experimenting and moving quickly. But they also balance it with the need to make honest money from it as a business. Web sites that have no business model don't last very long and don't add more things for the visitors that give back to the community. Web sites that are all about the business model and exist only to exploit the visitor also don't last very long as people see right through it and stop coming back to them.
And speaking of Heroes, I have it on my DVR but haven't watched it yet … hope I'm not disappointed!
Let me know what you think of Heroes, Eric!

Yeahhhh, Heroes totally bored my socks off (and I didn't stick around for the second hour–I need my sleep!). And I'm sticking w/Fringe for now, even though it creeps me out a little and some of the 'real' science is even off (what can I say, I have a thing for JJ Abrams).
