Independent Women’s Forum Reviews SATC 2
During my sorority days, I loved this show. I even designed a t-shirt to match the show’s logo. Now? Not so much. The franchise needs to end, and it’s bothersome that Candace Bushnell is now packaging it for tween girls with her Carrie Diaries. At this point, I don’t care anymore, and the excess of the characters’ lives seems inappropriate with so many people struggling economically. Please just go away.

Help Mike Raise Money for the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund
My friend Mike is riding in his first 100k bike race in the Air Force Cycling Classic, which raises money for the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund. He’s already beat his fundraising goal, but go over there and show some support for a good cause. Mike will attempt to ride 62 miles in 3.5 hours. Good luck!

Pirate Bay Launches Dating Site, PirateDate.com | Tech Crunch
While perusing TechCrunch, I was amused by the announcement that Pirate Bay, a file-sharing site, has launched an online dating platform. While I find the concept of online dating creepy, this is simultaneously bizarre and funny! Are there actual women involved in the BitTorrent universe? Would you really want to connect your Facebook profile with something similar to Match.com? If one of your friends joined and PirateDate.com showed up in your Feed, would you block them or stage an intervention? I would pay to see a YouTube video of a wedding with the couple saying, “I’m so lucky I found my honey on Pirate Date. Yar!”

This is likely one situation where creating a new brand would have helped. I only see this appealing to two audiences: guys on BitTorrent and people with a Pirate fetish, which I’m assuming exists.
