Peep Show s05e02
Oh, Dobby: let me chew on your weird hair.
End to end, a wildly cobbler episode. (Yeah, it’s better if you’ve been following the arc, but it’s still gold)
Below in three parts.

the smiths southbank show 1987
Terrific, hour-long documentary on the Smiths, talking with members of the band as well as fans, friends, Peelie, et al. Nice insights into their process and influences. Must-see for fans.

Favrd. Trickle-down egonomics for the twitter attention span
Dean Allen (aka @textism) just did a very cool thing for people who like to surf Twitter favorites; he took out the webcocks but left in the fun.
From his post, introducing Favrd:
…by any means necessary, web-strategy, social-media, online-marketing webcocks – unaware as they are of how toxic their presence is in the arenas they cannot shut up about – must and shall be filtered out of view.
Good on ya, Dean. If bandwidth and cycles become a problem, I’m certain you can count on the fun bunch for donations.
Also: I will, at this juncture, predict the natural response — a service that’s nothing but webcocks and their self-links to whitepapers and blogkkake. Which I predict will be huge. Because that’s why the web has gotten boring. Yep. Webcocks.
