Great speech, inspirational for women and society overall.

Facebook's Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg delivered the keynote at Barnard College's 119th Commencement ceremony. Addressing approximately 600 members of Barnard's Class of 2011, Sandberg implored the young women to "never let your fear overwhelm your desire. Let the obstacles in your path be external not internal. Fortune does favor the bold and you'll never know what you're capable of if you don't try."

The "Did You Know?" video, which has been making its viral rounds through various social networks. Breathless, admittedly amazing facts, prepare to meet a firehose of information. ("What does it in-form?" is another question...)

Florida quotes from a NYT review of Susan Jacoby's book, "The Age of American Unreason," which describes the spectacularly stupid Kellie Pickler, who claimed on television that she had never heard of Hungary, didn't know what country Budapest is the capital of, and believed that Europe was "a country." Her performance has earned her a wildly popular view rank on YouTube. But you have to wonder, as I did in my comment to Richard's entry, whether it wasn't a purposeful exercise on Pickler's part. If you can't win prizes for being smart, what better way to ensure your 15 minutes of YouTube fame than by being the absolute stupidest of the moment? I'm sure it's a growing trend and we'll see plenty more people competing in this ..."category."

I wonder if Charles would have come up with this?
"The Queen, considered an icon of traditionalism, launched her own special Royal Channel on YouTube on Sunday. (...) 'The Queen always keeps abreast with new ways of communicating with people,' Buckingham Palace said in a statement. 'The Christmas message was podcast last year.' The palace said, 'She has always been aware of reaching more people and adapting the communication to suit. This will make the Christmas message more accessible to younger people and those in other countries.'"
- the original 1957 TV broadcast is up, and worth watching.
