While reading something yesterday concerning marketing in virtual worlds I resisted the urge to comment. Last night and again early this morning, I further resisted the temptation to post something here regarding what I’d read. And I’m now resisting the urge to slip something in. I won’t.
The only thing I’m going to say is that my internalized exasperation and an upcoming meeting with an old acquaintance with whom I expect to discuss the topic, really got me thinking.
Consequently, in pseudo stream-of-consciousness style, I posted some entries on Twitter to help me retain some of what was going through my mind. It’s not intended to make sense to anyone but me, but because I don’t trust Twitter to retain those entries, I’m going to add them here.

Reviewing the above items, I’m realizing I’ve neglected some music-related entries. That’s embarrassing considering how important music is to my thinking on these issues. So here are a few related things:
Die Warzau. Machina II. R.E.M. Wax cylinders. Dvořák. New Orleans. Moby. Void Rock. Bowie. Monophona. Voice Recognition Test. 37 Cycles. HMV HK. Peter Murphy. The Coca-Cola Kid. Frippertronics. Karma to Burn. 2112. Guitar Hero. Derek Hess. Recoil. Jane Siberry. Good enough.
