Waste

 
Ever written something into a weblog's comment form and then decided not to post it? Ever started out writing that wonderful entry for your own weblog and then decided to kick it into forgetfulness? What a waste of beautiful verbiage!

Well, here's the new home for wasted weblog entries and comments.
If you see a

button on a weblog's comment form and decide not to post that lengthy comment about holes in your socks, the paint on your living room walls, or this morning's breakfast, then just hit the button, and the wasted comment will be dumped to this site. Anonymity guaranteed.
You can also add a

button to the entry form of your own weblog and dump away.

... which from now on actually also accepts wasted weblog entries (see sidebar for further details).
Yes: wasting words is our business.

I don't think it's simply about resolution. In any case, there's no reason at all why Quicktimes can't be compressed and put on line with at least as much quality as cable TV (not known for the pristine brilliance of its image).

I think it's true to say though that the way we relate to the TV compared to the internet couldn't be more different.

I remember a guy at college who was right by the Sussex pub when it was blown up by the IRA. He claimed it wasn't until he could get home and see it on the TV that he really started to believe what he'd seen first hand. Such is the monolithic, ratifying presence of TV.

The internet is different. We generally control the media that we see and watch it in neat little windows or file it away on our hard-drives. The relationship seems to be that of the collector.

feels like it cuts too fast too, says a boy who has cut every video he has ever made too fast. Given that the track has summer written all over it, maybe it was a victim of caution planning, and our shit weather.  ...
