This sheep talks back
On my way back from this weekend's meeting of the Online Deliberative Democracy consortium I had a chance to enjoy the ever-increasing vigilance of US airport security. At the end of my last US visit I ended up at the airport with a colleague who relayed the...
My 10 sites
As promised, I'm picking 10 sites for my bookmark bar; in fact they're pretty much there already. Here's what I'm going to try to live off of for the next week, with no search and no typing addresses into the address bar: My blog's admin page My del.icio.us page My...
Take the 10-site challenge
I'm blogging this from Mike Weiksner's sidekick and it is painful not to have one, bluetooth or no bluetooth. (Its one major shortcoming.) The phenom of mobile browsing - which makes typing a little annoying - reminds me of a favourite question of mine: if you were...

Ambush kills U.S. troops in Iraq
Snip: The suicide car bomb and ensuing small-arms fire killed at least two Marines and four others were missing and presumed dead. At least one woman was killed, and 11 of the 13 wounded troops were female.
The ambush late Thursday also suggested Iraqi insurgents may have regained a foothold in Fallujah, which has been occupied by U.S. and Iraqi forces since they regained control of the city from insurgents seven months ago.
The women were part of a team of Marines assigned to various checkpoints around Fallujah. The Marines use females at the checkpoints to search Muslim women “in order to be respectful of Iraqi cultural sensitivities,” a military statement said.
The demise of Technorati politics?
What's missing from the new and improved Technorati? It seems as if their overview ofpopular blog conversations still includes movies, books, and the top 100 -- but where is their politics page? Until the redesign, Technorati was home to a nifty slice of political...
Where social software meets social activism
A lot of my recent reading and thinking has focused on how social software -- community-building online tools like blogging, wikis and social networking -- effect small-p political change by allowing groups to self-organize more easily and powerfully. Today, Wired has...
