What We Learned This Week

/
• On Super Bowl Sunday millions gather together to watch the game. Many of those millions know nothing of football, yet the NFL does not use social media or their websites to educate and recruit new fans on the one day they will watch a game. 
• Little Vader's name is Max Page.
• One more reason to get more sleep: the body hoards calories during an all-nighter.
• Creating worlds is hard: Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek pitch and Ron Moore's Battlestar Galactica bible leaked online, with Moore's bible having an anti-Star Trek (a show he wrote for) take on sci-fi.
• A new kind of horror: a website disappears from the server and even though you can restore from backups there is no logical explanation of why or how it disappeared in the first place. 
• The Daily turned out to be a slow, crash-prone app I've deleted from my iPad.
