Like Blackle, a derivative (GS is Yahoo! powered, Blackle is Google powered); instead of saving energy with Blackle, GoodSearch donates ad $ to a charity you get to pick. Pretty awesome.
Now, if only GoodSearch came in energy-saving black…

(PS I’m officially coning the term “in-activism”, which will mean “internet activism” a large umbrella combining social [...]

My interest lies in the combination of critical and creative that Ulmer urges. This is especially pertinent to me, as I’m seeking a PhD in Creative Writing and this program seeks [...]
I’ve been wanting to read Lev Manovich since I had the pleasure of publishing (and interviewing) UWM MFA student A. Bill Miller. He does some interesting (provoking, pretty) gridworks and 3D video/sculpture that have a lot to do with digitality, language and – ta da! – transcoding. Check it out (and buy the new cream [...]
