Deep thought

That last post was a bit Heat Magazine, so here's some food for thought.

  • Geoff Ryman, author of the internet novel 253 (read it here), which tells the story of each of the passengers on a packed Bakerloo line train, has written a tribute to the victims of the London bombs. It's incredibly simple, but surprisingly moving.

  • Is your electricity really green? This article in the ecologist points out that very few companies are actually doing anything to promote alternative fuels, even when they charge you extra for doing just that.

  • And finally, an interesting riposte to yesterday's article about movie audiences getting dumber: The New Yorker says that blockbusters are losing out to small-budget movies in the DVD market.
