This is very inside baseball, but I have to share Paul Carr's proposed cast for the Facebook movie. For those of you who care, it's a blast.
My favourites? Ben Affleck and Matt Damon as Googlers Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Lindsay Lohan as Sarah Lacy (that puts the SXSW debacle in a whole new light). John Goodman as Mike Arrington. And Lily Tomlin as Gawker overlord Nick Denton. This is just too much fun.
