May 30th, 2008Pure ninja genius. Thanks to Bill for sending this to me.
expelled from expelled
March 22nd, 2008Evolutionary biologist expelled from a creationist movie showing. The movie’s title… “Expelled.”
Myers’ and Dawkins’ interview is really funny:
Richard Dawkins best line (imho):
“What astonishes me about this, it’s an incredible piece of inept public relations to expel somebody not just from any film, but from a film about expelling people for their beliefs… […]
Thrilling post about Thingfo
February 5th, 2008First, Kristen Nicole from Mashable checked out Thingfo and wrote a thoughtful review.
Then this morning I saw this Twitter:
Thanks, ontask.
Get scared-er!
January 23rd, 2008A truly great ad:
From a citizen supporter of Jackie Broyles for President. You may not know of Jackie yet, so go check out RedStateUpdate to get more familiar. These guys are hilarious, and the ad makes a great mockery of the fearmongering the US has gotten used to.
“We’re more scared now […]

Al Gore using his Current TV site to post short videos on key issues
October 15th, 2007Al Gore just posted 3 nice, short, clear videos on key issues. Love to see that he’s “eating his own dog food” as we say, by using his own site to post these videos and start a conversation.

Hopefully […]

The blogosphere has provided so much meaningful coverage and criticism of the Bush administration, while the corporate press and Establishment Washington has lined up to defend Bush and Cheney.
Funny how the truth can effect […]

August 21st, 2007Will the internet and social media defeat top-down conservatism?

TechCrunch & DailyKos: an accidental 2-fer
August 1st, 2007I’m driving across the Bay Bridge at about 10:30pm when I get a text from my buddy Greg. “dude you are on techcrunch!”. Funny, I’m thinking, my startup hasn’t released our alpha/beta/whatever-we’ll-call-it. What’s up?
I get home, pull up the Crunch, and apparently Scott Beale took this photo which aroused some interest. […]
Facebook move shows how they think ahead, rather than defensively
May 24th, 2007Facebook is opening up its platform.
Facebook has become a primary relationship and identity broker for millions of people. Now outsiders can capitalize on that information in a safe way, pulling from users’ expressed interests in their profiles, building on their stated intention to attend events, or simply giving them more dedicated tools for expressing […]
