News of the day

Warner Bros. to offer movies through Facebook- A great example of effectively reaching the target audience through inter-brand promotion. If people will pay for movies on Facebook because they are too lazy to get up and go pay for it, so be it. Interesting idea Warner Bros.

The house from UP was built as a real house!- This is just unbelievable. The house below from a Pixar movie was actually created.

And from the Missouri School of Journalism: I am following live tweets about a convergence journalism student attacking his professor as well as another J-School senior. As obscene as this is, it's ridiculous that the senior student who was "attacked" is finding time to tweet about what's going on rather than live it.

Edit: Here's the Missourian article.

Back to a busy and rainy day here in Columbia!
