Put up a new “Fucked” entry, “This House Is Not For Sale.”
Reporting 2.0
Taking a new class in which we discuss the reality of journalism in the 21st century. I wrote a piece about Seth Godin and the death/rebirth of newspapers. Read it here.
More news.
Updated my Flickr site. The Girl, The Cat, The Inlaws’ Place, and other shit you won’t like.
New, new, new.
1. New chi.mp account. All my social networking stuff corrals in there.
2. New TL Tumblr. Helps me publicize faster, and has kickass features.
3. New home for the Words & Sounds podcast. Giving this poor bastard a place to rest its forsaken megabites has reinvigorated us. Expect more podcasts in the new year.
Will post a new “Fucked” installment soon as well.
