XTREME Salon blogs!

Christian Crumlish

Your Salon Blog Tour of Quality


There's an odd event to describe — it looked as though the Paulapalooza web site was destined for the dreaded Death Watch, when suddenly, yesterday, they received a multitude of traffic. But they only pulled up three ticks from the abyss, and two of those were mine. What's up with that? Oops. Forgot to link.


More astonishing news: Fried Green al-Qaedas (temptation strikes: why not add a link to FGAQ?) was the target of an actual valid Google search today, with someone landing on our pages looking for Molly Harvey, the Resident with an actual name. Ah, blogs, time passes so quickly. To find the article, go here.


Andrew Bayer writes about the Stan Lee / Marvel Comics rip-off.


Missed in passing: Contemplative Muse has posted a few times now, yet I've never seen her till today. (SALON! How bout a 24 hour update clock?) Yay! Another D.C. person! Have to admit to never reading about Coriolanus before — and it was interesting — but my stupid mind kept going Cornholio.


The Raven goes XTREME!


Kat Donahue reviews the latest and greatest music videos.


salonika — no you can't find it on your radio dial — is an attempt by Radio Free Blogistan to help create a Salon Community (God knows, Salon ain't interested). If you write something about that relates to said community, you might be interested in contributing. Visit to find out how.


Emphasis Added writes about the talented and tainted Gary Hart.


I was excited, I admit it. I try, God knows I try to read Rene Hoornweg's Blog. This reviewing thing is hard. Today I thought I had it. "Over een man's beste vriend. En dan bedoel ik geen hond." A dog is man's best friend. The nicest are the big green hounds. Right? No. It's just a review of 'A Cultural History of the Penis'.


Oh, well...

Blogging the vote count / election fraud story: in Freeing the facts, California Insider Dan Weintraub writes: This NY Times piece on the role of blogs in fanning, and then debunking, stories of fraud in the presidential vote carries at least a mildly handwringing tone, as if somehow this turn of events was unfortunate. I disagree.... (Journalism)

Is linking like sex?: I sometimes wonder if linking isn't like sex. By my actions I touch you. Sometimes very intimately. Is the relative paucity of males linking to females not unlike the early days of puberty with males grabbing each others penises under the covers on spend-the-nights? (What do girls do to each other,... (Blogosphere)

Incoming!: As Rayne noted to me in email this morning, we were hit with comment spam this morning. The only new thing about this is that it's now hitting on articles I didn't author, so I don't necessarily see the email notification. We have Jay Allen's MT-Blacklist installed, so all comment notification... (Editorial)
