- Debating the best movies of 2008. (11) - By Jeannette Catsoulis, Lisa Schwarzbaum, Dana Stevens, Jessica Winter, and Stephanie Zacharek - Slate Magazine: Another thing: A side-by-side reading of Road and critical darling Wendy and Lucy offers fascinating parallels of theme (if not execution). Lucy the dog essentially functions as Wendy's child and (ANOTHER SPOILER ALERT) ultimately has to be left with a foster parent so her owner can wander on unencumbered. And much as I love this beguiling little movie, and Michelle Williams' tender performance, the story is drowning in improbabilitie s. For a vagabond, Wendy is shockingly inept: a useless shoplifter and careless traveler who, instead of hopping on a Greyhound bus (she has the money), chooses instead to ride the perilous rails. Hasn't she heard of the Craigslist "Rideshar es" section? Could she also be?a suicide?

- How the newspaper industry tried to invent the Web but failed. - By Jack Shafer - Slate Magazine: "Given the industry' s early tenancy, deep pockets, and history of paranoid experimentatio n with new communication forms, one would expect to find plenty in the way of innovations and spinoffs. But that's not the case, and I think I know why: From the beginning, newspapers sought to invent the Web in their own image by repurposing the copy, values, and temperament found in their ink-and-paper editions. Despite being early arrivals, despite having spent millions on manpower and hardware, despite all the animations, links, videos, databases, and other software tricks found on their sites, every newspaper Web site is instantly identifiable as a newspaper Web site. By succeeding, they failed to invent the Web."
