Baseline - new IT magazine from Ziff Davis
April 22, 2003.
This week, both InformationWeek and Baseline have feature stories about new technology at Delta Air Lines, so it’s a good opportunity to benchmark Baseline, a new IT magazine from Ziff Davis, to its old school press-release republishing counterparts.
The difference: while the InformationWeek article is just a poor rewrite of bland warmed-over press […]
Dean responds to Santorum’s remarks
Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA) yesterday made remarks referring to the current sodomy case before the Supreme Court. About the case, he said:
If the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual (gay) sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have […]
College editorial endorses Dean
Sing It Sister. “Democrats need an anti-Gore, an un-Gephardt, and not someone, like Joe Lieberman, who could be nicknamed Bush Lite. They need Howard Dean.” [Link]… [Bush Lites Weblog]
Lieberman campaign strapped
Lieberman Looks For Money. Connecticut’s News 12 cable channel reports that Sen. Joe Lieberman was “back home in Connecticut Monday looking to raise some much needed cash for his presidential campaign at a Norwalk fundraiser.” The biggest problem for the Lieberman camp is the headline: “Lieberman campaign in financial trouble.”… [Taegan Goddard’s […]
Dean picking up more bloggers
More bloggers are picking up on Gov. Dean’s Common Dreams article:
“I am what is commonly referred to as a social liberal and a fiscal conservative.”In other words, he’s not only about the war, it’s the economy stupid. [metafilter.com]
Dean is my choice for the next president. After reading this, I’m even more impressed. [Mike […]
Rush Limbaugh: He was wrong about everything…
In many circles (certainly several that are reading this blog), having Rush Limbaugh despise you is as close to an endorsement as we’ll take from him.
Be sure to head over to Rush Limbaugh’s web site, where he rolls the quote from this week’s Fox News Sunday – Mara Liasson (NPR) proclaims Howard Dean […]
Blogs as pamphlets - take 3
Turns out I’m not the first to notice Prof. Bailyn’s comments about pamphlets being very similar to weblogs. Dan Bricklin, co-creator of VisiCalc and founder of Trellix, remarked on the very same thing two years ago (almost to the day, oddly enough):
I think reading some of what Bailyn had to say back in 1967 about […]
Howard Dean on the Bush Doctrine
Governor Dean just published a position paper at CommonDreams.org, a progressive web site:
On day one of a Dean Presidency, I will reverse this attitude. I will tear up the Bush Doctrine. And I will steer us back into the company of the community of nations where we will exercise moral leadership once again. […]
Blogs as pamphlets - take 2
John Palfrey, Executive Director of the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard Law weighs in on my pointer to Prof. Bailyn’s discourse on pamphlets:
“Rick’s analogy rings true to me, given a recent experience testifying against the mini-DMCA proposed in Massachusetts. In a centuries-old hearing room, dozens of technologists had come to testify against […]
House Party Just 10 days away
You may recall that my wife and I are hosting a house party for Governor Dean next Saturday, April 26. This is part of the campaign’s “Stand Up!“ effort – to commemorate Gov. Dean’s courageous actions in Vermont when he signed the civil union bill into law ensuring equal rights for all Americans […]
