Notes

1. Zoe Williams has written a good article (wittily titled Storm In A Teen Cup) on the whole Miley Cyrus thing in her Guardian column today. The same paper's G2 section also covers the story here and here. Incidentally, if you buy the print copy G2 carries the photo full page.

2. Zara Phillips looking really rather beautiful on the cover of GQ Sport.

3. Quote of the day, from Time Out a few weeks back, Werner Herzog...

"Most people drink coffee, but I think it's some sort of beverage of the cowards."

4. I see that Friends Reunited is now free of charge. I guess they didn't have much alternative. The stubborn haging on to their charges has seen their visitors bleed away and the rise of social networking sites like Facebook has rendered FR somewhat redundant. When was the last time you bothered to look at it? They're trying to reposition as a social networking site themselves, but the boat's already sailed.
