The day the Internet died…

O.K. I just opened up my inbox, after three hours of doing something else, and there were nearly 200 spam and macro virus emails, and barely a dozen “valid emails” (non-junk)… most of those were from some of the many and active mailing lists I’m on. This is ridiculous. I pity anyone stuck administering an […]

Kids as Saavy Consumers

I’m amused to note that the kid’s are displaying signs of becoming saavy shoppers… the other day, I overheard one of them tell their mother that the instructions on the bottle of shampoo recommending that you wash your hair twice are just there to make you use more shampoo and have to buy a new […]

worth between $25 million and $35 million, on average, according to
data provided by several investment banks and by Equidesk, a
research firm.
During the past three years, however, only 264 companies went
public, and the average deal was close to $300 million.

Latest site: UnRepentantNaderVoter.com

…. some of the stuff related to the Green Party Presidential nomination that I’ve been posting here, will instead be posted on the UnRepentantNaderVoter weblog.
And yes, the site has already made the national news: Newsweek covered it in this Monday’s print edition. Counter-programming the Zeitgeist, I call it. :)
