You have to question a cinematic culture which preaches artistic expression, and yet would support a decision that is clearly a product of a patriarchy-dominant society, which tries to control how women are depicted on screen. The MPAA is okay supporting scenes that portray women in scenarios of sexual torture and violence for entertainment purposes, but they are trying to force us to look away from a scene that shows a woman in a sexual scenario, which is both complicit and complex. It’s misogynistic in nature to try and control a woman’s sexual presentation of self. I consider this an issue that is bigger than this film.

We’re working on a more robust keyword selection mehod for Lijit’s ad serving platform. The top 100 search queries for a given network (automotive, business, tech, etc.) are displyed in a list on the left side of the screen. What makes it different from other keyword selection methods is it’s lack of the ‘left/right’ buttons for moving keywords back and forth. Instead I went with a slightly new interaction method in which the user selects their keywords and moves them over in a batch. There is some debate around the office as to whether this is a good thing or not.
