Five Fun Things Online

Summer music hits, ''American Idol,'' child prodigies, and more

1. 'Idol' Lives On...
For those of you in Idol withdrawal: Winner David Cook and runner-up David Archuleta just stopped by to share their postshow plans. Tune in for one last (sniff!) Idolatry interview.

2. How Do You Spell Precocious?
Just ask the kids competing in the Scripps National Spelling Bee (the finals air on May 30). In their honor, we look at prodigies in the world of entertainment, including Little Man Tate's Fred (Adam Hann-Byrd).

3. Beachy Keen
Time to crank up the volume and cruise: We rank summer's 100 greatest hits — and the Beach Boys aren't No. 1.

4. Baby, He Was Bourne to Run
He took down his evil handlers in The Bourne Ultimatum. Now Jason Bourne is coming after...your Xbox 360. Check out exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of the action videogame The Bourne Conspiracy.

5. Mock Around the Clock
Skewering the sword-and-sandals flick 300, Meet the Spartans is launching an attack on the DVD market. So we're unleashing our first Spoofography, a chronicle of the faux genre.
