Content isn’t product: it is bait.

The problem with micropayments (first appeared in InfoWorld)
When you watch network television or read the newspaper, you are neither customer nor consumer. Advertisers are the ones making buying decisions, because it’s advertising that pays the bills. When you “buy” a newspaper, at most you’re paying for the raw materials.
Which also means the newspaper or television […]

The Video Blog Experiment
There are two schools of thought on video blogging. You can treat the video as if it were a story, for example, broadcasting short interview which is edited down to tell the news. Or you can use video to illustrate or serve as a companion to a story. In this case, I’ve […]

Check this out: weird side effect of Google integration into Firefox

The integration of Google into Firefox, such that entering a keyword
into the URL bar results in an automatic redirection to the first result
returned from Google, has a really ironic side effect: any malformed
link of the form, http://http://www.whatever.com will wind up routing
people to www.microsoft.com (the first search result returned by Google
for “http”).
See http://www.thomasleavitt.org/test.html for an example […]
