October 30, 2008Obama for PresidentIn the middle of the night last night, someone stole our Obama 08 sign from our front yard. Well, you can't steal this one:
Vote for Barack Obama, not the grumpy old guy whose single message has been FEAR. Obama in 2008!

October 13, 2008Rumors of Web 2.0's Death Are Greatly ExaggeratedLately I'm seeing a lot of "web 2.0 is dead" blog posts. First it was some group of dot-com nobodies having a private party in Cyprus that signaled The End. Now, GigaOm announces that the launch of HoffSpace, a social network for fans of David Hasselhoff, surely means that Web 2.0 is dead.Puh-lease. The only thing that is dead in web 2.0 is the notion that "web 2.0 is dead". So what if there's now a social network for Hasselhoff fans? So what it if generates several million users? I say, good for them. What about Ning? The service that hosts social networks for tens of thousands of niches? Surely, separate social networks for all those separate niches should have signaled the end of web 2.0 a long time ago, no? No. I say, for a planet with six and a half billion people on it, there's room for lots and lots of social networks for all kinds of interests. Let them be. And may they all flourish.

October 04, 2008Robert Baer interviewHighly recommended: the Fresh Air interview with Robert Baer, a former long-time CIA officer who covered the Middle East. As Dave Winer also noted, it's a "chilling but fascinating" interview about Iraq, Iran, Israel, and the whole region, and the risks and consequences of Bush pulling an October surprise by having the US attack Iran.To gain a different perspective you won't read in the paper or on the cable TV news, this is a must-listen-to program.
