Earthseed by Pamela Sargent was one of my favorite books from junior high. It was out of print and I had a hard time finding but I finally did and now it sits on my shelf waiting for Keri to read it. Oddly enough 25 years after it was first published Pamela is coming out with a sequel (Farseed) and seems to make a trilogy out of it. I want to be happy about it but I’m dubious instead. I wish Pamela the best of luck writing it.

The President of Iran has just started a blog
The President of Iran has just started a blog. I would love to read it to get a better understanding of the other side of the story. Some where some one will pick up the slack and translate The Iranian President’s posts to English. Let me know if you find who is translating the posts. (via BoingBoing)

Aziz Ansari is quickly becoming my new favorite comedian
Aziz Ansari is quickly becoming my new favorite comedian. I originally saw his Indie Clerk Assholes video and now after seeing Clell Tickle: Indie Marketing Guru I’ve become hooked. Here is a great clip of some of his stand up where he has imaginary conversations with M.I.A. (previously). He plays up being a hipster a lot with lots of indy rock references but I still feel he has some wide appeal. If Demetri Martin can break though so can Aziz.
