Ever since setting up my RSS feeds in Google's Reader my life has changed in ways unimaginable. I used to have this crummy RSS Firefox add-on that worked, but oh man it is nothing compared to the Goog's. Case and point would be the fact that I probably never would have seen Gawker's interview with Joss Whedon ("Firefly", "Buffy", Serenity) had it not been for the almighty Reader and this one kicks all kinds of ass. Joss Whedon news is typically like posting news on Harry Potter or, now, Twilight, meaning if you get something juicy and original the Browncoats will come flocking and this Gawker interview is a great example. While this may not be the ultimate interview in terms of bringing information it is one great read, which is what interviews should be, not endless streams of "Hey, what about Serenity 2?" questions.

I’ve been hearing about this weird project for a long while now; it’s a series of 10-minute “webisodes” done specifically for viewing on your computer by various talented people in Hollywood, one of them being Joss Whedon.

His short film is called “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog” and tells of a low-rent super villain (Neil Patrick Harris) who keeps getting beat up by a superhero (Nathan Fillion) and can’t talk to the cute girl next door. How cute. Whatever, though; it’s Joss so I shall follow like the sheep I am!

Another of the series is “Driven” by Fright Night and Child’s Play helmer Tom Holland, the teaser for which is below. Holand said that this is an action/noir combo that should make fans pretty happy. He's also got a pretty cool horror project in the
