• Monkey Bites notices that the Wall Street Journal has discovered something new: RSS feeds. Apparently, the beloved newspaper of junior investment bankers everywhere had been a late adopter of across-the-board RSS.
Scott Gilbertson notes: "Of course just to prove that, while they may start to understand RSS, they still don’t understand the web, the WSJ’s new feeds, like so much of the site, are only available to subscribers."

• John Brownlee at Table of Malcontents puts other bloggers to shame: Instead of just commenting on the Mooninite mess in Boston, he checks what Massachusetts law actually says about hoaxes.
I wonder how many folks in the mainstream media will bother to hit the criminal code?

Gadget Lab has the disturbing details.
