Today's media scum don't write for newspapers, or magazines, or tabloids, they don't even write for blogs or websites, no they just create one-off, single page tablogs that feature a prominent Digg button and morbidly titillating content.

Take for instance this site: When Is Britney going to Die? Sure, they don't know how to use capitalization in a headline, and their design is essentially a picture, a graph and a form, but hey, they're giving away a Playstation 3 if you can predict the exact time of Britney Spears' death, down to the minute. Classy.

In news that certainly won't help Ms. Spears' custody battle for her offspring, it appears that Nintendo's Wii is heartily trouncing Britney's hair—in terms of eBay consumer interest that is. While the rest of the list looks about accurate for off-eBay console buzz, to see Britney's hair performing so well against big names like Sony and Microsoft, it really makes you root for the underdog. Oh yes, this is news. Michael McWhertor

Britney Shaves: Gamers React

The only thing sadder than Britney Spears shaving her head in some misguided attempt at regaining, I don't know, something, are the hundreds of Sims created to gimmick the new, balder Britney.

Searching the Sims 2 returns more than 200 Sims created to look like Ms. Baldy, including this one. So, very, sad. And don't get me started on the Anna Nicole Sims.Brian Crecente
