The Oeuvreblog Trend / 30.06.07
I've posted already about More Words About Music and Songs, my current blog project within which I write an essay about every Talking Heads song, one at a time. Since then, however, quite a few more have popped up...both Q magazine and The New York Post have written about the trend (the former mentioning mine by name), and I have to admit it's an interesting phenomenon, this, using as it does the formal rigidity of the default blog to its advantage.
Sunday Bloody Sunday / 29.06.07

Big Brother Eight - Week One / 10.06.07
Despite the planned eviction being cancelled, the first week (or so) of BB8 has seen the usual early drop-outs.

Human Nature eBook / 04.06.07
We're a little behind on our Doctor Who series three reviews at the moment - although rest assured, we do intend to catch up in due course - so it'll be a little while before we get round to raving about how utterly fantastic Paul Cornell's "Human Nature" two-parter was (although he might as well clear a space on his shelf right now for the 2008 Hugo).
