The brightest and the best
The Guardian is about to embark on a major new project - a live comment blog which will pull in not only the best of our commentators' work but the views of other bloggers, critics, academics, writers, technologists, thinkers etc., in a sort of British version of the Huffington Post.

We are not evil
"People are willing to steal music from music companies but not from artists".

editors to tell all
"It's a different world: we're more open about what we do. Even if we get it wrong it's good to have the conversation about why."
Pete Clifton, que assina semanalmente a coluna "From the editor's desktop" (porque a BBC entendeu a internet e os blogs...)

Portrait of the Blogger
A Web log really (...) is a Wunderkammer. That is to say, the genealogy of Web logs points not to the world of letters but to the early history of museums - to the "cabinet of wonders," or Wunderkammer, that marked the scientific landscape of Renaissance modernity: a random collection of strange, compelling objects, typically compiled and owned by a learned, well-off gentleman. A set of ostrich feathers, a few rare shells, a South Pacific coral carving, a mummified mermaid - the Wunderkammer mingled fact and legend promiscuously, reflecting European civilization's dazed and wondering attempts to assimilate the glut of physical data that science and exploration were then unleashing.
Julian Dibbell, na FEED Magazine, em 2000 (porque é antigo, mas é canônico...)

What do newspapers do?
"The newspaper of the future needs to fight for audience - fight for its life, before someone comes and takes it from them."
É a resposta do Topix.net para a sua própria dúvida existencial (porque vale conferir o raciocínio todo...).

Blogs versus the NYT
"In a Google search of (...) the top five news stories of 2007, weblogs will rank higher than the New York Times' Web site."
Em 2006, Jason Kottke foi conferir a previsão de Dave Winer (acima) com dados de 2005... (porque a briga é boa).

ambiguities and lies
[You've now played both Lester Bangs and Truman Capote-two larger-than-life cultural figures. Is there a difference between impersonating a real-life person and creating a character?] There is at first. One difference is that you have all these materials at your disposal. There's information right there that can help you-books, tapes, photographs-which you don't have when you're creating a fictional character. But once you get that information, you have to start looking at the character as a fiction. When you're playing someone who really lived, you carry a burden, a burden to be accurate. But it's one that you have to let go of ultimately. Films are always a fiction, not documentary. Even a documentary is a kind of fiction. So, ultimately you have to think about the story you're telling. You want somehow to be able to create the character in such a way that people actually stop thinking about the fact that they're watching a real person-that they're watching "Truman Capote." If you can get them to be more invested in the story they're watching than in the character, then you've succeeded.

[You've been in 40 or so movies, I think, and you've played what we might call happy or positive characters maybe five times. (Magnolia is the shining example.) Do you have a thing for playing unpleasant people?] Well, I think if you look at any actor who isn't just playing heroes, that's what their résumé looks like. There are characters in movies who I call "film characters." They don't exist in real life. They exist to play out a scenario. They can be in fantastic films, but they are not real characters; what happens to them is not lifelike. But ultimately if you're not the actor playing that hero, that "film character," then you're taking on other roles in other movies, and you're going to be playing characters with a slightly more realistic view of what life is like. Ultimately, all characters have some negative and positive energies. That's just how I see it. I didn't go out looking for negative characters; I went out looking for people who have a struggle and a fight to tackle. That's what interests me.

Talking head
Vivo como me dá vontade. As consequências são minhas e gosto de arcar com elas. Sou eternamente responsável por aquilo que cativo. Escolhas feitas a dedo, portanto. Não uso máscaras. Me sufocam, sabe como? Tenho muito sono e a vontade imensa de ler todos os livros do mundo. Acredito que dinheiro não compra felicidade, mas compra minha cerveja, portanto é bem-vindo. Odeio multidão - quase morro. Gosto mesmo é de ir ao cinema sozinha, naquelas sessões ao meio-dia: vazias. Aprecio lugares altos que proporcionem visões panorâmicas - ver o mundo de longe é necessário às vezes. Sinto saudades. Até choro. Se não adianta, eu grito. Pretendo morar na França em um futuro não muito distante. E terei uma filha com nome Sophia. O resto não importa. Não pra você.
Da Natrium, que assina o Vertigo e que - porque eu estava com saudade - linca pra nós.
