august 2008 by peteashton

Twitterific: The Dark Knight at The Imax
august 2008 by peteashton
Nicky curates the, well, phenomena is probably the wrong word, of everyone on Twitter announcing to the world that they're going to see Batman on a big screen. More fun that you might imagine.

Why Media Gets Community Wrong

Great rant from Adam Tinworth which can be summarised as "Community is not a place. Community is an approach to publishing." Plenty in there to learn from.
