- I'm learning a lot about different dialects across the US. I've even learned some new terms! How insightful. [via Matt]
UPDATE: Here's the Language Log's take on the information and its origins.
- I liked this touching webcomic that uses a quote from Roger Ebert.
- This makes no sense to me. Google explained its shutting down of Reader by saying that “users with smartphones and tablets are consuming news in bits and bites throughout the course of the day — replacing the old standard behaviors of news consumption over breakfast along with a leisurely read at the end of the day.” Is that some sort of common misconception that I'm not aware of? That people who use RSS only use it once or twice a day? Do people actually believe that? This article makes the future of news gathering/reading sound bad to me.
