"All wheels stand idle, when your strong arm wants to." (Literally translated battle cry of the German labour movement, see German Wikipedia)
Update: marlow_mcgraw has a much better translation (see comments):
"every single wheel stands still / if this is your strong arm's will"
Wii You Marry Me?
See Nick Carr about an essay of two Wharton professors:
"So," the authors write, "what drives modern marriage? We believe that the answer lies in a shift from the family as a forum for shared production, to shared consumption ... the key today is consumption complementarities - activities that are not only enjoyable, but are more enjoyable when shared with a spouse. We call this new model of sharing our lives 'hedonic marriage.' ... As consumption increases, so too will the demand to have someone with whom to share these pleasures."

Web 2.0 In Space - Part 1
Great post from Joe McKendrick about the dangers of Web 2.0. He quotes David Chapell:
"Some of those Web 2.0 applications will fail, with an important piece of the user interface just not showing up one day because one of the supporting feeds just isn’t there any more. The guy who mashed it up in the first place doesn’t work there anymore, and many will be scrambling to figure out who is supposed to fix it, and who to point the finger at."
