I'm still waiting for a Phish cover of the song

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog
This may be the best thing I've seen all year. I'm a little late to the party, but that only means I didn't have to wait for each episode to post.
It's basically a very well-made web series. Neil Patrick Harris stars, and part of me hopes HIMYM ends soon so he can make …

on corporate america
I said this to a friend, and thought it was worth posting here.
"What I learned is that to be fully creative you have to be fearless, and corporate America chokes out creativity because it's completely and inseparably rooted in fear."

Cloverfield
So who had a bunch of people visiting his site and dropped the ball on updating them with Cloverfield news? I did. Big time. I could make excuses, and some of them might even be valid, but I'll spare you. Enjoy the movie on Friday.
two lists
(For those who don't know, I started back at college on Monday after 11 years away, 3 days after my 30th birthday.)

01-18-08 Part 26: matt jarbo is the man
Thanks to reader Matt Jarbo, we have exclusive footage of J.J. at Comic-Con. (Warning: Language)
He also tells me he procured a 35mm print of the trailer, so now we can all be jealous together, if only because it's destined to be a collectors' item.

01-18-08 Part 25: furious
Maybe it's just me, but I think of all the rumored names are interesting, but for some reason I like just calling it CLOVERFIELD.

01-18-08 Part 24: myspace
Ladies and gentlemen, thanks to astute commenter "Serpentish" (Serpentine?), we now have the MySpace pages of those at the party. I think it's safe to say these are official and credible, mostly due to the people present in the pictures on the homepage and the MySpace …
01-18-08 Part 23: 1-18-08.com images
Please don't interpret the lack of posts as a waning interest on my part, only as the well of information dries up. But as astute commenters Nittiman and Kirk noted, a new feature (or perhaps an old one we missed) has been revealed on the website. When moving the images …
