Interesting links for July 17th 2008 through July 18th 2008:

• Michelle Obama’s blog [BlogHer] – In a canny move, Michelle Obama has begun blogging from the campaign trail.  It’ll help create her own voice which, at least on the other side of the world, really hasn’t been heard yet.
• Watchmen (2009) [Apple – Trailer] – The Dark Knight has raised the bar for graphic novel adaptations, but the trailer for Watchmen looks pretty damn amazing (visually). Let’s just hope the film turns out as dark and bleak as it should. The trailer does make everything perhaps a little too crisp (Watchmen is nothing if not gritty), but I thought the CGI New York with the Twin Towers in the background looked excellent.
• Rick Trooper [YouTube] – What happens when Dark Vader goes Rickrolling? [Background here.]
