Sunday night links.

* I can't bring myself to watch the murder of Neda Soltani on YouTube, but a lot of other people have. It's remarkable how quickly her face has become that of the protests in Iran.

* The New York Times has an article exposing abusive practices in the freelance textbook market in New York, with my good friend and old co-blogger PClem providing some of the ugly details.

* Polls show widespread public support for a public health care option. Will this remind Democrats in Congress that they swept the last two elections?

* Buffy vs Twilight.

* Infinite Summer begins tonight. Kottke kicks things off.

America is a country that no longer reads: Stephanie Meyer's Twilight series currently occupies all four of the top four spots on the New York Times a bestseller list. In other news, America is a deeply unserious place. [UPDATE: See the comments for some correction on this. The Freakonomics posted is actually fairly lightly sourced and he never actually says which bestseller list he saw.]
