A Whole New Mind
Dan’s new book is a stunner. Well worth the time and money. It’s time to develop your right brain!
You Women Get Going…
To the Blogher conference.

By holding a day-long conference on July 30, 2005, and establishing an online hub, BlogHer is initiating an opportunity for greater visibility, learning and success for individual women bloggers and for the community of bloggers as a whole.
Your House From Satellite…
For some reason I only just discovered this – thanks to Jeff for the pointer. But… if you type your address into Google, select maps and then select satellite mode you can see your house – kind of. This is way cool.
Have Your Say On The NYT
Read and post your views here.
Pogue says:
But that’s only part of why the Annotated NYTimes is such a wild, mind-bending Web site. It’s a lot like the NYtimes.com Web site — except that the articles have links attached that take you to bloggers’ (Web loggers’) comments… the way it’s organized is ingenious and, I predict, a taste of formats to come.
What Goes On In Court, Stays In Court
Or maybe not… C/Net reports that a Canadian blogger is testing the law on this one. Hey, remember that old "we’re not journalists thing"? If you can’t fix it, feature it (I guess).
Canada’s long-standing practice of barring news organizations from disclosing what’s happening in certain court proceedings is being tested by Internet bloggers.
A Canadian commission that’s investigating charges of high-level wrongdoing in the nation’s Liberal Party has ordered news organizations not to reveal details from the proceedings, which are open to the public.
But Ed Morrissey, a conservative Web logger in Minneapolis, has been gleefully violating the ban by posting detailed reports of the verboten "Adscam" testimony. Public revelation of Adscam, which involves allegations of corruption and illegal campaign contributions, could end the Liberal Party’s precarious grasp on power and force new elections this summer.
And his page views have surged to 400,000 a day… Hmmmm, off to court then.
