Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?
Feels like Google's hire of Matias Duarte from Palm to Android was a good move. I'm certainly feeling better about Android over Apple after this interview at CES, which gets into the 'to and fro' of designing for people as well as open source developers (though of course the latter are people too).

Entheogen
This documentary on Entheogens is quite uplifting. I recommend bookmarking it for one of those times when being cheered up isn't going to work or help, but taking your mind off things will or if you just want to skip to the Stanford and MIT geek-mafia talking about the inseparable relationship of computing and LSD when pitching the hippies against the pocket protector brigade for creative output (no contest). It's at 50 minutes 30 seconds.
In case you know of any good documentaries, talks and so forth, I'm in the process of hoovering up as much of the internet's video content on quantum mechanics, relativity, entropy, and of course big bucking bang as well as mysticism including all the deisms. so please do let me know of any gems.
