Baby steps, people.

What would it be like, if everyone of us or one day to have a report written on our lives, based on our skeletons?

Interesting attempt to push back at the way the US Media has covered the French response to several terrorist acts by people who may be characterized (fairly?) as Islamist radicals.  

Nice.  Make writing not about reflexivity or self-consciousness, but about...

I've been quiet lately, but I've been gathering data.

An interesting story about the changing ecology of the media sphere, and the way that traditional keepers are pushing back on the alternative news of the right wing ecosystem. I wonder if this is going to last. It seems a good step to me.
