Baby's First Internet
 Illustrator Kean Soo and writer Kevin Fanning have created a hilarious book about the Internet for babies called Baby's First Internet.
Do not stop to think or edit:
You must be the first who said it.
You heard a brand-new band? What luck!
You'll be the first to say they suck.
In order to increase renown,
add "bacon" to most any noun.
It's not your job to right a wrong,
just mark it FAIL and move along.
Babies won't really understand the book (it's not really for them) which points out some of the many absurdities of web culture but they might enjoy the rhyming text. However, parents will enjoy the light-hearted humor. (via kottke.org)

Britney's Mother Writing Parenting Book
The Associated Press reports that Lynne Spears - the mother of Britney Spears - is writing a parenting book called Pop Culture Mom: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World. The book will be published by Thomas Nelson, a major publisher of Christian books.
"Pop Culture Mom: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World" is set for release May 11, which is Mother's Day, said Curt Harding, a spokesman for Thomas Nelson Inc., a Christian book publisher.
"That is all we're releasing at this time," Harding told The Associated Press on Friday. "I have not seen a manuscript so I cannot comment on the content."
Spears, 25, continued to make headlines Friday when she arrived in a white Mercedes convertible for a court hearing in Los Angeles to work out custody arrangements of her sons, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, with ex-husband Kevin Federline.
Lynne Spears doesn't sound like the ideal person to write a parenting book. Britney has had tons of problems. She's been in rehab. She shaved her head. She's a terrible pet owner and she has a foul mouth. Most people probably don't blame Britney's mother for Britney's antics but they also probably wouldn't seek her out for parenting advice. The book will probably sell well anyway out of curiousity.
