I haven't been following fandom in a big way since 2001, but I still spent about an hour poring over this trainwreck of an article about sockpuppetry and Harry Potter. I explained what I had been reading to Steve on the way to dinner. His response:
"So what did she get out of all of this?"
"She got to be Cassie Claire's roommate at Nimbus 2003."
" . . . so what did she get out of all of this?"
Relatedly, MIT media studies scholar Henry Jenkins has a blog. Here's his theory on why Firefly should have gone direct to video instead of to the big screen.
In other news, I am rewatching Buffy. I also rented the first couple of discs of The Wire, but I am not thrilled with the first episode.
