plasticbag : Spotted by Dan Hill of cityofsound.com, After Our Time is a blog that responds to and comments upon BBC Radio 4's awesome "In Our Time" - I was introduced to 'In Our Time' by Mr Webb and it was the first show that he managed to get out of the door in a podcast format. It was also the one that I was most interested in being annotated. Nice to see it happening.

plasticbag : Make Me Watch TV - the readers choose which TV show he'll watch and he dutifully blogs the whole thing - Interesting idea! Mostly quite entertaining! Not sure he'll keep it up very long, though. Worth keeping an eye on. I particularly like the idea that he'll keep missing episodes of programmes even if he likes them. That's interesting / cruel.
