Gemini Division's Botched Launch
What is Rosario Dawson doing in a direct-to-web science fiction series (called Gemini Division)? And why has nobody heard of this show? Check out my article that shows only 81 viewers have actually watched the "Special Effects of Gemini Division" webcast.

The biggest YouTube star of all time is... Fred
It's a sign of how totally fragmented our popular culture has become, both on- and offline, that I had never heard of Fred before reading this LA Times piece. He is a *huge* star by any standard -- wait 'til you see the stats in the piece. Mind-boggling.
