How about the shameless self-promotion they’ve been doing this year with OurChart? (Just a touch more eye-rolly than the Dos XX phase they went through.) I thought, no way this is real! No way!
Come to find out, the shit’s bonafide; it’s up, and it looks just like the chart Alice has on the show. Creepy. Kinda like MySpace for queer faces, except, don’t know about you, but I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be psyched about having an interconnected web diagram of all my entanglements interfaced and exhibited for all to scroll on the triple-dub. Sheesh. Bad idea.
What d’ya think? Is it too much?
