A couple of good articles about the Obama campaign’s use of the Internet, during the campaign and after it. The last one isn’t really an “article”, but it does mention Blue State Digital’s name, and that’s nice.
And did I mention this beast of an article from Newsweek on the campaign, from teams inside all the major campaigns? It’s completely fascinating, and the reading of all 7 parts lasts a long time.
An excellent selection of quotes from the Internet’s biggest Ayn Rand dating site.
I have been successfully disturbed at processed foods and “natural flavors” after reading this excerpt from Fast Food Nation.
The Internet disagrees with you.
That page on fast food flavors is fascinating.
My mother used to work for the Flavors division of McCormick; they’ve supplied flavorings to companies like KFC, Taco Bell, Pepsi, Budweiser and even McDonald’s. And yeah, it’s as secretive as the essay suggests.

Fast Food Nation was okay, but The Omnivore’s Dilemma was top-notch. It covered a lot of the same territory as FFN while being a better story, covering a wider scope, and staying factual instead of resorting to knee-jerk reaction and putting a particular political spin on everything. Perhaps most telling, it actually influenced me to make some changes in the food I consume.
