Mumbo Gumbo

A few months ago ebizQ launch (in ninja stealth mode) ITGumbo, a community blog site. Last week an hysterical new blog was launched, which I bet you will end up passing along. Mumbo Gumbo, by Leah Archibald, features the heads of Harry Potter and Hermoine on muggle bodies in muggle world settings, navigating the ever shifting electronic age. Apparently it can be as challenging as fighting off Death Eaters.

In the first issue Harry advises Hermoine that email is now only used for communicating with grandmothers in nursing homes. Hermoine is eager to find out what the cool kids are now using. This one is too funny to pass up.


The second edition features Harry and Hermoine during the blackout last week that took down Craig's List. For a moment there it looked like the outage was going to give Harry and Hermoine some extra time on they could devote to fighting the dark lord.

The most recent edition focuses on a recent study confirming that many Americans are addicted to email.

Check these out. They're clever and funny. Enjoy, and please pass it along.
