Around the time Google was kicking YouTube’s tires, I wrote up a long, involved post about what I thought of the potential merger. Like most of what I write, it ended up getting a little convoluted and was relegated to the circular file. The general theme of it was that maybe — just maybe […]
I’m constantly reminded of how poor a writer I am in my constant struggles to finish original work (a forthcoming series on Vendor Relationship Management I’ve been trying to pen for a month now is a good example). There’s something about a blank canvas — I’m just a deer in the headlights.

I’m a regular Cato@Liberty lurker but I’ve been buried in work and have been a little slow clearing out my feed reader’s backlog. I just came across ‘Net Wars, a Tom Firey post regarding the upcoming network neutrality debate. He started out with a solid summary, but once I read the analysis, I couldn’t believe […]

It probably needs a fork, but the name I’ve seen being bounced around […]
I stumbled across a recent TechCrunch post and couldn’t help but think of some really interesting pseudo-gambling applications you could build right on top of this service! With the recent, very stupid anti-gambling legislation, it could be a really, really cool idea and pretty easy to mash something up.
If only I had some freakin’ time: […]
