Robert Barksdale gets it. It's a bootstrap. A bit of a Hail Mary. It's like Peter Pan. If you believe in it, it happens. If you doubt, it doesn't. [Scripting News]

New reality show features Ozzy Osbourne. Oz and his family will be the focus of a new MTV reality series, "The Osbournes," set to debut March 5. The weekly show will follow the family -- including his wife/manager, Sharon, and teenage children Jack and Kelly -- for six months. The Osbournes gave MTV virtually unlimited access into their lives, as cameras followed them around wherever they went. Been there, Done that. [Adam Curry: CurryDotCom]

This Scientific American article points out some very interesting human behaviour regarding Television, Video Games and WebBrowsing. As with video (tv shows, commercials, music videos) where edits in the source material engage the viewer by prolonging mental processing during the visual stimulus, hyper links on a web page give the reader a "greater sense of control and engagement". In both cases, tv and web, there is a saturation point, where too many edits (more than 1 a second) or too many links on a page (more than 10) make people "tune out" or "surf off".
