- Mark Bonafe blogged a review of Frans Bouma's LLBLGen Pro product where he shares his observations based on his (admitted) brief experience with the product. What is notable about this post is not whether Mark liked the product or not, but that it helps to create an atmosphere where various topics of interest can be discussed and debated in a public setting, accessible to anyone. The ability to create this |

- Mark Glaser (OJR) looks back and forward: 2003 offered up much more than just an unhealthy fascination with blogs. We also obsessed over the proliferation of people with camera phones breaking spot news stories; the rise of Google and Google News; the soap opera at (AOL) Time Warner; |

- The American Historical Association will be honoring an alledgedly former Ku Klux Klansman, The Honorable Robert C. Byrd, Democratic Senator from West Virginia, with an award at the association's annual meeting next week. The Theodore Roosevelt-Woodrow Wilson Public Service Award is intended to honor a "public official or other civil servant who has made extraordinary contributions to the study, teaching, and public understanding of history." I look forward to reading the justification for this award after the event. What bunk.... |

- This one speaks for itself. Apparently Patrice Moore, 42, from the Bronx was quite the packrat. One magazine too many and he was buried up to his ears before he knew what hit him…apparently, because they found him completely naked. |

- Landslagsmålvakten Stefan Liv i toppform bländade en fullsatt ishall i Timrå med ett målvaktsspel i världsklass. Timråspelarna sköt, fintade och drog - men i sista stund dök Stefan Liv upp och lade beslag på pucken. |

- När Leksand och Frölunda möts är det jämnt och spännande. Och "elvornas dans". Leksands elva Johan Witehall inledde målskyttet. Men det var Frölundas nummer elva Magnus Kahnberg som satte avgörande 3-2 i straffläggningen. |

- In Defense of Globalization I never ceased to be amazed by how susceptible we all are to the "lazy generalization", especially when it comes to beliefs that really matter. Globilization is a classic case. It's difficult enough gaining precision in what globalization means. But nonetheless it has been accused of increasing poverty, harming women, undermining democracy, obliterating culture, lowering wages, eroding labor standards, imperiling the environment, encouraging corporate predatory behavior. Indeed, globalization, according to a new rather well-fed activist elite, it is the new devil that plagues the planet. |
