Coraline

I'm such a sucker for Web 2.0 viral marketing. When Neil Gaiman asks people to do something in his Twitter feed, what do I do? I do it. Here's what he said:

neilhimself Would people mind spreading http://bit.ly/xTG5 around a bit? Put links up to it and such? It's the first Coraline trailer I've liked


Here's what I do:


It opens the weekend I'm in Iowa visiting my sister. I wonder, would it be too scary to take the C-Man and Princess O to while I'm there? I would enjoy sharing it with them, but I fear it would not go well. I would also love to see it with Diana. Curse me and my bad timing!

This also brings up the interesting experience that is following Neil Gaiman's Twitter feed. Now I really feel like I'm stalking him, but it also enables a very strange sort of access to him, in that he frequently responds to messages sent @neilhimself. I'm not sure how best to use this as I really don't have anything interesting to ask or tell him at the moment.

In 1789, the governor of Australia granted land and some animals to James Ruse in an experiment to see how long it would take him to support himself. Within 15 months he had become self sufficient. The area is still known as Experiment Farm. This is my Experiment Farm to see how long it will take me to support myself by writing.
