ericmortensen: Tumblweeds is kind of a bummer. It kicks sand in the face of the curated and varied meritocracy of the Tumblr universe. The next generation of Tumblrs will all follow the same 50 people instead of gradually finding their own unique core community. As a result, the rich… I think this happens in every medium or channel. Has anyone found a way to stop this from happening? The...

Don't Compete - Change the Game
continuations: I know that “don’t compete - change the game” can easily be seen as kind of a trite slogan.  But I still find myself in many meetings with startups where the strategy can be summed up by: our plan is to do this better than our competitors.  While out-executing others is possible and companies succeed with that approach, it is really difficult.  It is especially difficult, if one...

Roger Ebert: Why 3D doesn't work and never will. →
jaredklett: Awesome post from Ebert, citing a letter from a widely respected and experienced film editor, Walter Murch. Money quote from Murch: This is a deep problem, which no amount of technical tweaking can fix. Nothing will fix it short of producing true “holographic” images. “And lastly, the question of immersion. 3D films remind the audience that they are in a certain...

Gansett Porter
ohhleary: wreckandsalvage replied to your photo: New York, meet your newest beers. Available here… Love Gansett, wondering how the porter is… The Porter is fantastic! It’s up there with any other craft brewery’s American Porter, in fact. Smooth, chocolatey, roasty, and very easy-drinking. If you can find it, I highly recommend it! Going to have to pick some up next time I’m in RI.
