[ This and That: 11.12.08 ]
+ A few random things...
In the WTF category, the mayor of an oil-producing city in southeastern Turkey, named Batman, is supposedly suing helmer Christopher Nolan and Warner Bros. for royalties from mega-grosser "The Dark Knight."
This news from the weekend is just horrifying!
Nice idea for Sprint from Goodby Silverstein, Sprint NOW is a microsite filled with widgets using rss feeds to show what's going on now.
Take a break and check out some cool (pun intended, been one of those days!) photos of Antarctica.
Just so you know, good ideas don't just come from anywhere.

Huseyin Kalkan, the pro-Kurdish Democratic Society Party mayor of Batman, has accused "The Dark Knight" producers of using the city's name without permission.
"There is only one Batman in the world," Kalkan said. "The American producers used the name of our city without informing us."
