I’m liking this as a tag line for “Too Big to Know”:

But I’ve gotten some reactions saying that “skull” sounds too “Spinal Tap”-ish. I like it because skulls are so bony, and thus you can see why they don’t scale. But I’m open to improvements….

The Twitter hashtag #FailShare is accumulating instances of failed library projects, so that we can learn from them, and also, I imagine, to take the sting out of failure (on the grounds that sting-y failure makes for stingy ideas).

And, a brand new wiki page has gone up on the same topic.

(BTW, while on the topic of bad/good puns Frank Nugent once dismissed a disappointing play by the American playwright Clifford Odets with the line, “Odets, where is thy sting?”)
