A few links of interest

**I'm a little late on this one, but the Spartanburg Herald-Journal and the Spartanburg Journal recently published articles about the significance of Wofford College's appearance in the NCAA Tournament in terms of marketing for both the college and for Spartanburg (where Wofford, of course, is located). Here are some highlights as noted on the Wofford web site.


**An interesting piece in Slate about the battle over copyright infringement and YouTube and how all this might affect the future of video on the Web.


**Here's another Slate article -- about political rhetoric. This one's a bit old, too, but offers a thought-provoking look at how political partisans use buzzwords and other catchy language to influence voters. It's written, by the way, by former New York governor Eliot Spitzer. Despite his troubles, I do think it's a worthwhile column.
