“He’s wasted gallons of paint-thinner striking his faithful Zippo, its
charred wick, virility giving way to thrift, rationed down to a little
stub, the blue flame sparking about the edges in the dark, the many
kinds of dark, just to see what’s happening with her face. Each new
flame, a new face…In a life he has cursed, again and again, for its
need to believe so much in the trans-observable, here is the first,
the very first real magic: data he can’t argue away.” Gravity’s Rainbow

Is there some kind of internet toy of the year award I can nominate Aaron Meyer’s 3fram.es for? A simple, relevant concept well executed. Kudos to you, sir.

“The last defense of every Facebook addict is: but it helps me keep in contact with people who are far away! Well, e-mail and Skype do that, too, and they have the added advantage of not forcing you to interface with the mind of Mark Zuckerberg—but, well, you know. We all know. If we really wanted to write to these faraway people, or see them, we would. What we actually want to do is the bare minimum, just like any nineteen-year-old college boy who’d rather be doing something else, or nothing.” http://www.nybooks.com/articles/archives/2010/nov/25/generation-why/?page=1
