Look here 
 Dan Heller has a blog. I got turned on to Dan through his remarkable shots of the World Trade Center, when it was still nothing more than the anchor landmark on the New York skyline. Those shots resonated with me, because I had nothing but positive associations with the place, even though they wiped out Courtland Street and Radio Row (where I'd go to buy cheap vacuum tubes and various bits of radio trash back when I was a geek growing up across the river in New Jersey) to put it there.
 Dan's not only a first-rate professional photographer, but a published author on the subject.
 
Keeping IT real 
 Steve Chappell has two new posts over at IT Garage: ROI, TCO, COO, Yackety yak, don't talk back, and "All I wanna do, is have some IT Fun"... One sample:
 Don't ask me why, I have no idea who's great idea that was to make finance in charge of IT. In fact, the big industry financial heads I know stay as far away from impeding IT at all costs. But not the small-growing-transition companies for some unknown reason. They just love to stick a finance person in charge of IT.
 Context: I met Steve when he ran IT for our old agency, Hodskins Simone & Searls, in Palo Alto, back around the turn of the 90s. From then until I left the Bay Area (in '01), Steve provided nearly all my IT gear and support. I still miss him.
 It's great to have a real IT guy (and not just one of his customers) weighing in at the Garage.
 
Paneling in the streets 
 Jay Rosen: Are You Ready for a Brand New Beat? In which Jay fires Jeff Jarvis, Jason Calcanis, Ana Marie Cox, Mickey Kaus, himself and other Usual Panelists, and casts Debbie Galant, Lisa Williams, Jim Zellmer, Karl Martino and Weldon Berger in replacement roles. Among other sources, he credits Chris Nolan's Stand Alone Journalist model.
 Bonus link: Jeff Jarvis' Scale doesn't scale.
 
Can baritones be divas? Just wondering. 
 IBM's Martin Wattenberg, quoted in Infoworld:
 Reading a blog is like listening to a diva sing, reading a wiki is like listening to a symphony.
 
Ways to bet 
 China Stock Blog is an interesting window into a growing economy. Thanks to Rajesh for the pointer.
 
Boing 
 Congrats to Xeni on her huuuge profile in Sunday's LA Times.
