For those who don’t know how high my dork-o-meter actually goes, over the past two years, I’ve become a huge, huge fan of the Science Channel. Ever since TiVo decided that the Science Channel was what I needed, I’ve been a huge fan, living for everything from "How It’s Made" to "Big Machines," to "Megastructures," […]

Cool stuff - Company called Yuzoz has created a random number generator based on space events - Solar Flares, sunspots, pieces of MIR falling on cows, you name it.
Friend of mine is doing their PR - she asked me to help get the word out. I will - because I love the concept. I’m going […]

WWD reports that CosmoGIRL!’s executive editor, Ann Shoket, […]

La, la… Life is fun… La, la…
Brit files for divorce from K-Fed.
I’m shocked.
Remember Robin Givins? It used to be the woman - If she held out for a year then filed, she’d get millions. When did it become the guy’s job?

WHAT THE HELL IS KEN SUNSHINE THINKING? How, exactly, does putting giant initials over the press release help the reporter? And as long as we’re on the subject, how does making the reader SCROLL HORIZONTALLY to read the release, help either?
Ouch.
Any logical benefit of the doubt HAS to say that this is […]
A note to all those who have to plan their holiday parties.
We work in a small industry. A lot of times, if you’re having a holiday party in which you want to invite reporters, editors, consultants, and the like, think about whether or not picking a specific Thursday (Say, December 14th) is in your best […]
