Scribe Who Immortalized 'Canterbury
Tales' Unmasked (Reuters)
07/20/2004 07:58 AMReuters - Six centuries after immortalizing
British medieval author Geoffrey Chaucer's seminal work "The
Canterbury Tales," an anonymous scribe has been unveiled as the
long-haired son of an English landowner.

"Rance" unmasked as
cartoonist/filmmaker/screenwriter Keith
Thomson?
06/01/2004 04:56 PMDavid Emery, of
About.com's Urban Legends and Folklore department, tells BoingBoing,
"Wanted to let you know that Alex Boese of the Museum of Hoaxes may
well have solved the
Rance mystery with some
good, old-fashioned Net detective work, or at any rate is damn close
to solving it."
Here's a snip from the Museum of Hoaxes post, which -- true or not --
evidences some very thorough sleuthing indeed:
I think Rance is a cartoonist/filmmaker/screenwriter named Keith
Thomson. Here's my reasoning. What immediately struck me about Rance's
weblog was that it attracted a very high number of comments from very
early on. Within two hours after Rance posted his first entry on
December 29, 2003, four people had left comments on his site. Most
weblogs, by contrast, struggle to get anyone to read them, let alone
leave comments. So how was he attracting so many visitors to his site
straight off the bat? What I discovered was that immediately after
Rance posted his first entry on Dec. 29 at 4:49 EST, someone going by
the screen name 'InvaderFromPluto' began posting messages about his
weblog on various fan discussion groups. For instance, at 5:52, about
one hour after Rance had posted his first entry, a message from
InvaderFromPluto appears on Yahoo's thematthewperryplace message
board. It reads:
i read slate reported a famous tv actor keeping a weblog under
pseudonym "rance" at http://captainhoof.tripod.com/blog/ it's hard to
know if it is him, but it might be as it is funny and seems witty in
his sort of way
Obviously Slate hadn't written anything about Rance's weblog. Rance's
weblog, at that time, was only an hour old. So how did
InvaderFromPluto know about Rance's weblog so quickly, and why was he
so interested in promoting it? Perhaps InvaderFromPluto was Rance
himself. Makes sense to me.

It has been brought to our attention that several
unauthorized, sexually suggestive advertisements portraying the PUMA
brand have been released over the Internet. We are appalled that
images like these would be created and distributed under the PUMA
name. As a brand, we seek to take a unique perspective toward our
advertising in an effort to challenge the boundaries of our industry;
however we would never consider using these tactics. We are in the
process of researching the circumstances and reserve any legal steps

As you surely noticed, Fink has a logo. This is the result of our
Logo contest held earlier this year.
This new, official, logo has been displayed since the 24th of October
and
those of you who wondered how it has been picked and what the name of
the
winner is should read up in the PR section.
The longer explanation also features a larger version of the logo
itself,
so that you may have a closer look at its details. We like our new
logo,
we hope that you will like it too.
IMPORTANT: We do not yet have a formal licensing agreement for the
new
logo and so are unable to give permission to distribute it.
Currently, it
can only be displayed on the Fink web page. Thank you for your
understanding.

How to spot a trendy logo
How to spot a trendy logo
01/24/2004 11:31 AMInteresting piece on current trends in logo design (merging blobs,
swooshes, pop-art finneals, the color green, wireframes, etc). Though
it strikes me that, given my penchant for dinstinctiveness in
logomarks that I would be liekley to use this as a crib-sheet for
critiquing the logo-development undertaken by my design-firm: "Dude, a
green wireframe swooshy pop-art blob? That is
so played-out.
I want the new-new." Or, as Ian McDonald put it in his brilliant
novel,
Out on Blue Six:
So I said, like, whazz new, I mean, like new new, not old
new, yuh know, like last-week new, so she said, this yulp in the shop,
"This is new," like she said, "Cheez, like everyone, but
everyone's going to be wearing one next week," like, whazz a
yulp know 'bout fashion? Anyway, I thought, well, maybeez
sheez right, so, I got one, so I did like, whadyou think? Isn't it
wheeeee! like. Isn't it the most? Meanasay, you not got
fashion, you not got nothing!
