Random clippings

Some things jotted while listening to an interview with Kathryn Montgomery to follow up on later ... 

-- How does use of technology change the meaning of childhood?

-- Advertising companies are both making commercials that look like homemade YouTube videos, and asking for customers to make videos to be used as core advertising.   Neat trick! 

(Seriously - a YouTube mashup of filmstrip-y "I just got my period" video and an ad for Wendy's hamburgers?  Who greenlighted that project?)
