One Week Latter

Still watching our power use, baking in our home/office with low/no air con, raging at the juice pigs who don't get it, hoping the grid will stay up. It wasn't the end of the world ( one false positive ), but it's still unclear if the new normal is going to be power conservation, decentralized gird (build more like the internet), and micro or home generation.

WTF! Since When did Books get Trailers?

From SlashDork : Doug Chiang's studio has released a trailer for his upcoming book. The book is a collaboration with Sci-Fi author Orson Scott Card of Ender's Game fame, and will include 75 pieces of Chiang's artwork. Chiang is the Concept Art Director at Industrial Light and Magic (and thus the concept art guy for the Star Wars prequels).

The Second teaser is very vivid and compelling. Also, is this the furture of book marketing?
