Bionic Woman Microsites -- Fake News and Productivity-Destorying Mini Games

In the tradition of the PrimaTech Paper Company site and other Heroes ARG efforts, NBC has launched a handful of microsites for Bionic Woman, targeted at fans who want to dive deeper into the setting:

The Center for Ethical Bionics-Supposedly the "good guys" of the Bionic World, warning of the potential dangers of bionic research on human beings. For example, this bio of Sarah Corvus, (played by Katee Sackhoff, a.k.a. Starbuck), which delves into her becoming the first Bionic Woman. One especially cool thing about the site is how it mixes together real-life information about bionic research and fictional stories from the show's setting.

Bionic Assessment Test-Take this test to find out how well your bionic implants are working. Apparently, the higher your score, the more bionic you are (and the less productive you are at work, natch). The mixed-up keyboard game is the devil, I say, the devil. My high score is 81, beat that.

Blog Cabin Outake- Grin and Bear it for the Camera

DIY Network series Blog Cabin is no mere walk in the woods for host Amy Devers. Building the log cabin is very hard work indeed, and it means lots of exposure to scratches and scraps.

Amy makes the best of it, and keeps up her smile through minor irritations like the first of many, many splinters in this clip. <br /><a href=&#8221;http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/pac_ctnt_988/text/0,2829,DIY_24936_57710,00.html&#8221;>logcabin</a>

Blog Cabin Outake- More Fun in the Woods

DIY Network series Blog Cabin gives host Amy Devers lots of opportunities to try building techniques she's never used before. Since she's doing it all in front of the camera, the pressure is definitely on.

Amy has strong training in furniture design, and considerable hosting experience under her belt from DIY to the Rescue & Freeform Furniture.

Amy is certainly game for building challenges, and she likes to crack jokes that play on just how much she might seem out of her element. Faced with welding for the first time, Amy kids that it will harm her aura. See how much the crew working with her crack up over this.

<br /><a href=&#8221;http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/pac_ctnt_988/text/0,2829,DIY_24936_57710,00.html&#8221;>logcabin</a>

Blog Cabin Outake Video- Bugs Get to Host

DIY Network series Blog Cabin sends host Amy Devers (star of DIY to the Rescue & Freeform Furniture) into the Smoky Mountains to build the log cabin viewers voted on. Amy describes herself as a “city girl” and she is in for some big surprises about not only the building process, but also the realities of being out in the woods.

Seasoned builders are there to lend a helping hand and answer Amy's questions. They don't always ease her concerns though. In this clip from Blog Cabin the builders try and fail to reassure Amy about how to survive infamous chigger bugs. The rather uncomfortable solutions the builders share to get rid of chiggers include covering your skin with nail polish.

&amp;amp;amp;lt;br&amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;lt;a href=&#8221;http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/pac_ctnt_988/text/0,2829,DIY_24936_57710,00.html&#8221;&amp;amp;amp;gt;logcabin&amp;amp;amp;lt;/a&amp;amp;amp;gt;

Viewers can visit the Blog Cabin sweepstakes daily and submit one entry per day between now and October 1, 2007.

People responded enthusiastically to the call: more than 4 million votes were cast. The contribution of viewers didn't stop there- DIY Network gave bloggers a front row seat on the construction of the cabin and the filming process. Bloggers even had a key role in catching a pretty big oversight the building crew made.

Tin Man: This Ain't Kansas


In December, SCI FI's re-imagining of the Wizard of Oz, Tin Man will hit the small screen, starring Zooey Deschanel as DG (that's Dorthy Gale), Neal McDonough as the titular Tin Man, Alan Cumming as Glitch (the Scarecrow), and Raoul Trujillo as Raw, the re-imagined version of the Cowardly Lion.

As a teaser, SCI FI's produced a comic book in partnership with Virgin's publishing arm, and they've graciously shared a preview of the product with us. The cover shot is featured on the right. The Tin Man (who's name is Cain) is on the far right--he doesn't look especially Tin, right? Well, in The OZ (that's the Outer Zone), "Tin Man" refers to a sheriff of sorts: Tin badges, get it?

In addition to the comic, there's also some video on the SCI FI site, like this Tin Man teaser.
