How Gibsonian (or Laughing-man-esque28Ghost_in_theShell%29)% the whole video-cult esoterica was, don’t you think? (Though no one would have predicted that we would become obsessed with a ((fictional) chirpy teen.)) Danah boyd has some interesting things to say and the New York Time’s article on the memebomb is outstanding (but would some link love really kill them?).

I LOVE this girl, she can’t be a fake, she CAN’T….....=(...But if it is, I’m really digging the plot, I was actually happy when she and Daniel made up, and the whole mystery about her religion.. and what about that Aleister Crowley picture she supposedly has in her room….i haven’t quite been able to spot it but i think it is right above her bookshelf next to the door…......saludos!
