Welcome to Tuesday’s netcast:

The F-Word - Are virtual relationships with computer generations particularly good for the mind?

The Yorksher Gob - Witness the power of YouTube; able to render Obama attack ads he doesn’t have to make, and which hit harder than McCain’s anyway.

The Daily (Maybe) - celebrates Evo Morales victory in Bolivia.

BoRev - on some rather less pleasing news from Bolivia.

Pandagon - Do abstinence-only advocates actually live in the real world?

New Direction - The Blairites are their own worst enemies - and will suffer for their mistakes.

Gerard DeGroot - “Poor misguided children of Marx and Coca-Cola, you started making fun of society, but now you’re making fun for it.”
