I love what this guy is doing. He's really experimenting with curatorial space. It's a very thoughtful "doing" and not just discussing the notion of the experiment.

The Long Tail
http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.10/tail.html
This article from a few years ago seems to be all the buzz in the tech community. The author just published a book on the idea. It's a new economic model for commerce in the digital age. The idea is that there is just as much profit in selling small quantities of lots of items rather than selling huge quantities of a few items.

It's a really interesting site that shows the connections between people and companies.

I went into the menu that says "Load Maps." Then I chose "Popular" for a premade map. I liked a lot of them. The Haliburton and the Media was interesting. So was Apple vs. Microsoft and 2004 election party supporters.
A few tips on this site: The scroll bars are in gray along the sides within the window. Right click (or Control Click for Macs) on people and tables to see more. Like other affiliations.
Interesting.

I don't really understand it. But it's pretty cool. It's a flash site that tries to show the concept to you.

Claude LaLouche
On an August morning in 1978, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB and had a friend, a professional Formula 1 racer, drive at breakneck speed through the heart of Paris. The film was limited for technical reasons to 10 minutes; the course was from Porte Dauphine, through the Louvre, to the Basilica of Sacre Coeur.
No streets were closed, for Lelouch was unable to obtain a permit.
The driver completed the course in about 9 minutes, reaching nearly 140 MPH in some stretches. The footage reveals him running real red lights, nearly hitting real pedestrians, and driving the wrong way up real one-way streets.
Upon showing the film in public for the first time, Lelouch was arrested. He has never revealed the identity of the driver, and the film went underground until a DVD release a few years ago.

Make sure your sound is on, sit down, fasten your seat belt, and HOLD ON!!"
