The family of Caleb Logan, the 13 year old youtube vlogger who died suddenly last week from an "undetected medical condition", livestreamed his memorial service on the internet tonight. A source says they are doing it to "create closure for the fans".

I had to find something in my old Movable Type blog archive & this sad fact occurred to me: tumblr has dumbed down my writing substantially. --- I wonder if anyone else feels like this. I feel like tumblr is best for photos with captions ... not for real writing. Do you hear that, Karp? Yeah, you, the one who was the first to cave into Donkey's foot-stomping two years ago by knocking down any blog critical of her, only to resurrect them when you were deservedly and roundly shamed (something that caused poor Donkey to burst into tears at...

Jenna Cole, struggling to understand JavaScript, has managed somehow to figure out Manic Panic. Now that I know I can do a passable job putting it in myself, I can have pink hair all the time! As part of her Mumspringa journey Jenna has been doing the usual radical hair changes and alcohol. The nose stud piercing and Pinteresty feminism tattoos are sure to come next, probably around the time she finally makes HELLO WORLD appear and declares herself the millenial Grace Hopper. But first she needs to pout about how hard coding is and then lean in to some feminist...

Liz Joy recently enjoyed a few amusement parks with her family but apparently the water park wasn't up to her standards.

TMI Weekly, the sad internet "talk show" starring the founders of NonSociety.com, has finally kicked the bucket. A month ago we got word of the impending demise of the unfortunate production. Former co-host Mary Rambin confirmed the show's end on her blog today: TMI weekly has run its course and will be ending this month... Mary goes on to say she has another project she'll be working on. But what of her pal Julia Allison? No mention is made of her fate as a wannabe Oprah with her sad wannabe "The View" webshow, which Allison constantly brayed was on a...

Type-A Parent, arranges a bunch of conferences for mommy bloggers, revealed last month that mommy bloggers don't actually make squat. Now AdWeek has provided a more in-depth breakdown of the responses, and it's pretty eye opening. It seems most respondents invest more in premium blog themes and conferences than in actual advertising, and "product reviews" are number two in the list of covered topics with "causes" coming in dead last. The survey also reports that the "most despised job title by far is mommy blogger, with two out of three respondents saying they either hate it or never use it" -...

Amanda Hirsch, also known as notskinnybutnotfat, has posted a series of instagram stories sharing her brave battle with preschool class rosters on behalf of her son.

Jordan Reid Berkow, innocent victim of online bullying, has once again found some rando idea to co-opt for her blog. Lately I’ve been loving Lisa Eldridge’s instructional videos in which she tests out different beauty products and brands, and yesterday evening I got all inspired to do one of my own. My video is less beautifully shot than Lisa’s are – we’re talking 100% natural lighting (no one’s friend) and a very fancy set called My Bedroom, but hey…work with what you got, right?
