Electionics 
| | Today is an off-year election, with a few national races in the spotlight. The big action out here on the Far Coast is a raft of initiatives, also known as propositions, or props. |
| | It's playing (because it is) as a showdown between a videogenic Republican governor and ... I'll let Chris Nolan explain. |
| | I'm betting all the props will plop. FWIW, I voted no on all but 77. Our districts are politcally drawn, and 77 purports to end that. We'll see. |
| | By the way, I absentee-voted (one of Chris's subjects) for the first time. Liked it a lot better than the old-fashioned way. |
Wisdom of the (p)ages
| | ...what I really want is App 2.0. In App 2.0, we still do things in a document centric manner, or perhaps a task-centric manner. The main improvements are more along the lines of user interaction. A good "app 2.0" application does a few things differently... |

The devolution will be televised
The killer service
Stern punishment
| | I listened to a few minutes of Howard Stern yesterday morning, thanks to fortuitous wave conditions between San Diego and Santa Barbara. (Howard's L.A. station barely comes in here, regardless of the weather). There was a lot of chatter about losing the Las Vegas affiliate, and enough stuff about Howard's new Sirius Satellite Radio gig to suggest that the dude's numbered days on over-the-air radio are winding down faster than the calendar. |
| | Now I read on Jeff Jarvis (and Howard's site, which is linkproof on this story) that H was suspended a day (today) for overpromoting the Sirius Thing. |
| | Sometime this week I'll be testing out a new Sirius hookup (and not just for Howard). Look for more about the Larger Story over at IT Garage. |
Holding handhelds
| | It's a cool device. Go read about it. Lots of links to follow there. |
