August 2010
Went to Amoeba and traded in DVDs for $50 of store credit. Couldn’t find anything to use it on, though. I might be over physical media.

Dear news, where are you? Please come back. I would like to report you. #slownewsdayisslow
Okay, so Angelenos who aren’t creepy, here’s the Facebook invite for Aug. 6’s Happy Hour Funtimez: http://bit.ly/anLrkJ
You know Joshua Jackson’s “Pacey-Con” event at Comic-Con? Yeah, it was for @funnyordie. (He’s still dreamy, though.) http://bit.ly/9PH3Fk

I have been a little bit obsessed with the trailer for Charlie St. Cloud, because the trailer is effing stupid. OR SO I THOUGHT, until these guys revealed just how much I’d underestimated it.
Another victory for crowd-sourcing. RT @NewTeeVee: Yes Men Make $11,000 on First Weekend of P2P Release http://dlvr.it/33LH0
Anyone know of events occurring the evening of August 6 in LA? I’m thinking it’s past time for a big happy hour drink-up.
The three stand-out trailers for me at @celebratetheweb were for @asylumseries, “Apocalypse Wow” and @continuumtv. Looking forward to more!
I’m not usually starstruck, but CHEVY FRELLING CHASE and I are on the same train car back to LA. In COACH!
Sorry, #celebratetheweb, running late for an interview. Hope the first half is as interesting as the second!
Yeah, “The Guild“‘s new music video is a helluva upgrade to “Date My Avatar.” And “Date My Avatar” was already pretty rad. #sdcc #guild
Nothing like a night of #sdcc party-hopping to remind you how short most actors really are.
This is why I was in Ballroom 20 ALL DAY. RT @NewTeeVee: Joss Whedon ‘Actively Pursuing’ Web Content — After Avengers http://dlvr.it/2yLdZ
The audience at the #Bones panel is actively booing the idea of a 3-D episode next season. “It’s overdone!” a guy shouts behind me. #sdcc
Someone blew a vuvuzela when Wil Wheaton came on stage. And there’s a #bigbangtheory theme singalong with the Barenaked Ladies, live. #sdcc
Okay, that’s badass. RT @TheStephThorpe: Sam’s running Merlotte’s at the Omni right now! Way cool. http://yfrog.com/n8mwuj #sdcc
Only took 45 minutes to get inside Ballroom 20! Completely blown away. Also, Ming Na is fondling her iPhone4. And is drunk. #sgu #sdcc
Setting a limit for the number of hours of my life I’m prepared to spend waiting in a line. At least I’m getting some fresh air. #sdcc
Just lounging in the “Tron” world. Like you do. #sdcc http://twitpic.com/27s96v
At Comic-Con! By “at Comic-Con,” I mean “sorting out how to get into an event.” #sdcc has a way of being an accidental ARG at times.

This is the only blog to follow for Comic-Con culture, if you ask me.
My surgical strike upon #sdcc will commence this evening. I fear no lines or humidity. #becauseofmyninjaskillz
Contemplating the thought of competing web series starring Daleks is one of the purest pleasures of my job.
It’s all part of my plan. MISDIRECTION! RT @jillybobww: A ninja might not announce her intent to 1300 people beforehand.

So it appears that Saturday’s @celebratetheweb event is sold out on Eventbrite. I will just have to sneak in. Like a ninja might.
Last night’s @drama34prod screening = rad. Talented crew of dudes and great content. Plus, finally met @liamshow! (I have eclectic heroes.)
I'm not going to say that Comic-Con's customizable...
But goddamn it I’m glad they have one this year.

Based on recent experiences, this is totally true. But when approached from the right mindset, fuck yeah it’s a good time.
Just a thought

I’m worried that I may be easily brainwashed by viral media involving consumer packaged goods, because I think I have a crush on Isaiah Mustafa.
Then again, I do not wish to purchase Old Spice in any form. So maybe not.
This right here seems to me to define the difference between a great advertising campaign and a successful one.
Towards the bottom, I say why new media should read about old Hollywood. RT @NewTeeVee: GigaOM’s Summer Reading List http://dlvr.it/2gSrd
Having read the script — yep, totally true. RT @meganwest: The Social Network like a @BretEastonEllis adaptation! http://bit.ly/aPWz6Q

Dreamt that I platonically shared a bed with David Mamet. Woke up at 4:30 AM and decided to rewatch “Spartan.” Result: Madness.
That is the only setting on my motherfucker. RT @CiscoMan: @lizlet But did you “set your motherfucker to ‘receive?’” I know I did.
