Love and romance will soon be upon us again. A tacky card with padded hearts is not enough, true love can only be measured in gigabytes. So its either a new gadget or an MP3 of Barry White. For more love and romance read the blogs at 38minutes. Wanted is our most active group. Check out Anne Bonnar on Shirky's Rant. Other blogs include Big Brother winning the Turner Prize or Mark MacLachlan's radical suggestion that we pay for Scotland's aging citizens to enjoy a free trip to Libya. Or just pimp your project.
