Eastern Standard Tribe

The funny thing about Cory Doctorow’s Eastern Standard Tribe (which you can download in multiple electronic formats here) is that I finished reading the text file version of this book before the printed copy showed up at my friendly, neighborhood bookstore.

I liked Eastern Standard Tribe, even though I read it in two-three minute snippets while waiting for things to happen at work. (Which is a strange way to read a book, let me tell you.) I might still buy a copy of this book, on general principle, because I whole-heartedly approve of what Cory Doctorow is doing.

And speaking of movies…

On Saturday, the lovely photog and my chum C. and I went to go see the delightful movie, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind.

I cannot recommend this movie more highly. It’s a sweet, intelligent movie, that glitters and sparkles like the gewgaws in a raven’s baffled nest, as well as having a wicked sense of humor. This is probably the best movie I’ve seen so far this year.

Go. See.
