It's a strange world. Let's keep it that way.

Me? (I don't actually look like this.)

Looking for the Mouse

This is the guy that wrote Here Comes Everybody. The talk is over ten minutes, but he nails the thing, and he’s funny.

‘Desperate Housewives essentially functioned as a kind of “cognitive heat sink”, dissipating thinking that might have otherwise built up and caused society to overheat.’

‘Here’s what four-year-olds know: a screen that ships without a mouse ships broken. Media that’s targetted at you but doesn’t include you may not be worth sitting still for.’
