I found Office Pirates today for the first time, to discover it is closed. Apparently it was a "lad site" funded by Timewarner or some corporate branch thereof.

I've also found, for the first time, popurls.com and this Robert Scoble character, scobleizer.wordpress.com/.

A commenter there on a post about theft, which Porkbusters.org does, shamelessly apparently, led me to Plagiarism Today -- Plagiarismtoday.com -- , and, except for the fact that the owner thinks Weird Al is a pioneer, has some information regarding the next big frontier for "citizen journalists" to tackle, or get tackled.

Bebo.com is a tinier MySpace, with a bit more native multimedia life.

There's some super confusing advice for most of Europe, Driverightpassleft.com, which is OK, because it's meant for americans. Which reminded me of a post I have lurking in my mind, "Temple's Rules of the Road." 1. Don't pull out 10 feet in front of me - especially when there's five straight miles of empty road behind me, you dumbass. 2. Trying to play bumper cars by driving up close will make me tap the brakes and you'll wet your pants, braking anyway. So, stay back anyway. 3. If you're a truck or a semi or an SUV or minivan or anything with a high profile, I will overtake you because I hate not being able to see ahead of me to what you're (over) reacting to.

This media survey @ People Press - has done a tour of the Web. People find Katie Couric, perky and cute, also smart well-informed and liberal like a lush.

AdAge mag still thinks Media Works -- Adage.com/mediaworks, but this wasn't the launch to the other links. It came later. THey have the news that Nielsen expands their TV watchers survey sample represented. Or something.
