Here’s an interesting look at the state of digital and traditional media from CBC and pop culture guru Jian Ghomeshi: The End. There are three segments, one for radio, TV and print, each 22 minutes long.

If you follow this site through your browser or newsreader, you may have noticed things slowing a bit recently. CN has never been a personal blog, nor will it become such, but if you’re interested, let me fill you in on what’s going on behind the scenes. This will be short and sweet, promise.

For CN’s 100th entry, and especially for new readers via 9rules or otherwise, I’ve compiled a list of my √100 favorite posts thus far, excluding the more recent ones. I’ve updated a lot of these with new content since they were first published, so even if you’ve seen them before, you might find something new.

Starting precisely now, This Month In Finity is a regular installment of artifacts and developments in humanity’s never-ending quest for truth and meaning. Far from trivializing this pursuit however, In Finity recognizes the importance that science, philosophy, religion, etc. play in establishing our identities and satisfying our eternal curiosity, not to mention in finding peace and balance. Be it quantum physics, zen meditation, tribal dance and music, Epictetus’ Discourses, or The Sermon on the Mount — all will find common ground here, and hopefully, a common voice with which to share their insight.

CN is now part of the 9rules blog network. Nothing will fundamentally change — only the addition of a 9rules badge, new readers, and hopefully a little creative synergy.

You! (approximately 25% of you.) Are you using Internet Explorer to view this site? Do you know that many new websites (including this one) don’t display correctly in IE, given its sparse support for current web standards? I’m just saying … if a browser is a browser to you, take it from someone to whom it isn’t. Firefox is free, faster, and more advanced than Internet Explorer. Thats it … step into the light …

“The ‘blogosphere’ is the new buzz word that has replaced ‘information super highway.’ It’s what idiots like to call a collection of ‘blogs,’ otherwise known as a tragedy.” [...]
