Harry Potter, As Written By…
I finished the Harry Potter series a couple of hours ago. Good stuff.
Here’s a great list of “endings” (don’t worry, no spoilers found here) to the Harry Potter series if they were written by other people.
My favorites:
George Lucas (American Graffiti, Star Wars, Star Wars, Star Wars, Star Wars, Star Wars, Star Wars) :
The battle between Harry and Voldemort comes to a close with an exciting magical glowing sword fight in the never-before-seen high-tech part of Hogwarts during which Voldemort reveals that he’s Harry’s real father. Then the Death Star blows up.
Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly) :
As the conflict with Voldemort comes to a head, Ron Weasley is suddenly and shockingly killed. Hermione responds with steely determination, joined by Luna Lovegood, who turns out to be a rare witch who has super-powerful martial arts skills. While Harry tries ineffectively to help—often with comic results—Luna kills the Death Eaters with Unblockable Scorpion Kicks and Hermione defeats Voldemort in a head-on battle of magic.

PS3 is “Future Proof…” says Sony CEO
If you remember, the PS2 was slow out of the gate also. So history maybe repeating itself for the PS3.
The Future of Libraries
Unfortunately, with the ubiquitousness of the internets (and all its tubes), libraries seem to be going the way of the shambling wooly mammoth. What will happen to books? I think the visceral feeling of reading a physical book won’t go away anytime soon, but projects like this make me pause.

I guess great discoveries require great risk. Luckily there are people out there willing to take great risks.
