baseline is actually negative, this implies that the Kerry proposal
would increase the deficit by perhaps as much as $2.5 trillion over
the next ten years." ..

Post-Election Thought: Kerry-voters will
be happier than if Kerry had won
12/17/2004 06:36 PMPeople in Cambridge and Berkeley should be happier for the next
four years than if Kerry had won because whenever anything bad happens
they can blame George W. Contrast with Nice Guy Jimmy Carter's
administration. Things were going horribly for
Americans with 18% inflation, high
unemployment, our embassy staff taken hostage by Iranians,
and the Soviets crushing our Muslim allies in Afghanistan.
Amidst all of this depressing news there was seemingly no one to blame
and therefore people could only get depressed. I've met quite a
few Cantabrigians who seem to have enjoyed their anger at W. for the
last four years. For most people it would appear that anger
is preferable to despair.

The
New York Times says that VW is upset about the fake ad
showing a suicide bomber and a Polo. I'm sure everyone has seen a
reference to this in their local papers. (In a Japanese newspaper,
they had a hand-drawn story-board of the ad.)
For your reference, Wizbang has
links to the video.
And just for old time's sake, here are the snopes.com pages for the
Ford
SportKa and the Nokia fake
ads. (They have links to the videos.)
People used a lot of flash and video during the elections to
express their views online. With more bandwidth and easier and easier
video editing, video as a form of expression will continue to grow.
It's interesting how the TV ad as a form is perfect for twisted humor
because it is designed to be short and strong and people are used to
the format.

Jarvis has blogged his thoughts on this.

Too Many Fake Friends
By Jim Louderback
May 4, 2004
It probably started with instant messaging—technology's
insidious redefining of personal relationships. My AIM buddy list is
over 50 people long, with most of those actually coworkers. And while
I value and respect each and every one of them, I'd hardly call many
of them buddies. And I'll bet most of them feel the same about me.
A buddy's one thing, but a friend is so much more. And social
software, which lets you leverage your friends to make new friends,
really has me really concerned.
Back in the second grade, my best friend, Jay Keese, had a killer
Hot Wheels collection. A BMOP (Big Man on Playground), he still liked
me, for which I'll be eternally grateful. My other friends were
accidents of geography—they lived in the neighborhood and we
played together out of convenience.
As I grew up, I developed a small set of good friends—mostly
those too weird to be accepted by the tough guys or the fast crowd.
Later, I discovered that Dead Heads love everyone, so I promptly
became one too. But I've never doled out friendships easily. I have a
wonderful set of acquaintances everywhere, but real friends are less
common.
But the new and oh-so-exclusive Orkut system, started by a Google
programmer, has changed all that. It has redefined "friend" just as IM
redefined "buddy." Now I've got more than 50 friends—some of whom
I barely even know.
Like the ancient Prieure de Sion secret society, you have to
be invited into Orkut. New members describe themselves, and then
create networks of friends. They can then join groups built around
shared interests, send each other messages, rate existing friends and
search for new ones. My buddy Chris Pirillo—the Lockergnome, an
ex-TechTVer—invited me in. But as I signed up, Orkut presented me
with a metaphysical question: Was Chris really my friend?
Hmm. We'd worked together at TechTV. I had a blast attending and
speaking at his Gnomedex conference last year. I've learned a lot from
him and we've shared drinks and dinner. Is that a friend? Well, given
that I wasn't going to get into Orkut without saying yes, I threw
caution to the wind and said "Yes."
Since then I've received many invites from Orkut members asking to
become part of my growing circle of friends. Some, like Robert, John,
Brooke, Cathy, and Rosie, really are pals. Rosie's actually one of my
oldest buddies still talking to me—we've known each other since
we were 15. Others, including Oliver Muto and Marc Canter, are folks
I've respected and admired for years, but never been actually palled
around with.
The Orkut style of friendship reminds me of Dr. Phil's recent visit
to the Late Show. Letterman, clearly uncomfortable by the Doctor's
insightfully personal remarks, shifted gears by asking Dr. Phil to be
his friend. Let's go out and get some steaks, he pleaded, and drink
some beers at the bar. Let's be friends.
Is that what friends are? Partners for brewski guzzling and cow
chomping? Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of guzzling and gobbling
with my chums. But I think it's more than that. There's a sense of
shared experience and trust.
And that's all sadly lacking on these social networks. Instead,
friendship is being co-opted for more insalubrious purposes.
Take Steve. Looking to break some inane record of superficiality,
he's personally contacted hundreds of Orkut members, asking to be
added as a friend. Is his esteem so low that he craves the chimerical
kinship of many he's never even met? I don't know, but like a complete
sap, I accepted his offer of friendship, before realizing I was just
being used.
Canter, the founder of MediaBand and what became Macromedia, is
another Orkut slut. Marc's currently helping us launch a new version
of our gaming site 1up.com, so I had a
chance to find out the real reasons behind his apparent affability.
"It's all about marketing, baby," he chortled. "More names for my
list!'
I was crushed. And I thought he actually liked me. Instead, I was
just another peep ripe for the spamming.
But the worst was yet to come. I recently uncovered an even more
disquieting situation. It appears that a friend of mine who will
remain nameless had been harvesting my other friends to artificially
boost his own circle. Take "Tom," for example. There's absolutely no
way this "friend" would ever know Tom. Yet there he was, perched
smugly inside my other friend's network. This so-called friend of mine
was stealing my real friends to feed his own nefarious schemes.
Is this a cheapening of friendship? Or an expanding? I find it hard
enough to be a good friend to the 10 or so folks I really cherish.
With all this newfound comradeship, I think I'll be spreading myself a
little thin.
I've been getting five or ten invites a week, though, to join up
into someone's circle of friends—whether on Orkut, the
business-oriented LinkedIn, or a wide range of other social networks.
I used to just accept them all—like I did Steve and Marc, but now
I'm not so sure. I rejected a few, but then I felt guilty about it for
days. What if that poor lonely soul really considered me a true
friend? Could I have just crushed a fragile, needy ego?
Well here's a message to everyone I've rejected, and will reject.
It's really nothing personal. It's not that I don't want to be your
friend, because I really do. I'd just rather we became acquainted the
old fashioned way. So if you send me an invite to join your network,
please don't be insulted if I turn you down. It's not that I don't
like you. I just have an old-fashioned concept of what makes a
"friend."
Although if your invite happens to mention a super-neat collection
of Hot Wheels, I just might reconsider. Especially if you're going to
share.
