I thought "The Penguin in Cinema" would be picked, so I was genuinely surprised when chosen. As I use my new celebrity status to pick up chicks, I still suspect a profit-minded bit of flattery in Time’s decision. Magazines and newspapers seem to chase and woo new social technologies--and their indisciplines--in a way that’s unnecessary. Walter Lippmann’s virtues can still be preserved if papers run their blogs like an electronic variation on the special interest and leisure columns that they already print.
