While I’m as prone to lamenting Paris Hilton stories on CNN as much as the next gal, there’s something kind of hilarious in people’s pearl-clutching over the vapidity of
Jim Harper on Eddie Vedder

Sometimes you just need to copy and paste a few lines from another blog onto yours, even though you have nothing to add, uh, intellectually, in order to say “Hey, look here. This is a great paragraph.”
If Eddie Vedder sat stone silent for 30 seconds, everyone would know that he hated George Bush. Eddie [...]

I was thinking about Elyzabethe’s post the other day in which she claimed, by virtue of my presence, I would be pushing the politics of this blog to the left. It was a funny post, as it was meant to be.
To a certain extent, she was explaining my continued presence on the blog long after my [...]

Via Outta Mind Outta Site, the next step in online advertising: inserting ads directly into “the blogstream.” Sure, businesses and politicians have been trying to [...]

Sometimes the questions raised in a legal battle bear only passing resemblance to the facts of a case. Neat abstract legal principles are extrapolated from messy realities and the court rules on the principles, often times emphasizing and embellishing certain facts over others in order to make a point.
So I don’t know exactly what’s going [...]

So you may have noticed, oldmancoyote is now blogging at yellow is the color on a regular basis. Which is a good thing, since I’m apparently never going to blog again, if the past few days are any indication.
Warning: he is a HARDCORE DEMOCRAT, which means that he may clash with Ms. Raee, who [...]

Ugh. In the grand scheme of intense angry blog fights that seem omnipresent in certain circles and make it damn hard to forget that it’s only about .000005 percent of the US population who has any indication that this is going on, — we’ve got quite a doozy on our hands.
Here is the summary, [...]

I keep reading about all the fabulous panels at the recent BlogHer conference, and I’m quite jealous of everyone who got to go. Luckily, all the bloghers are blogging up a blogosphere storm about the blog conference, so we can all get secondhand accounts of the wit and wisdom and all that. Despite the many [...]
Belmar cops: in ur blogz, monitoring ur lame spring break stories
Posted in Bloggers, Digi-stalking, Privacy on July 30, 2007 | 3 Comments »
So AP reports
Monitoring blogs is the newest tactic in Belmar’s long-running effort to keep its notoriously rowdy group rentals under control in one of the Jersey shore’s last true party towns.
The article covers the beach town’s metamophisis from land of summer-rental-party-houses to land of fancy shmany condiminums, and how this has led to a police [...]

Seventy-five percent of the total political blogosphere audience is male? Because a good portion of the blogs I frequent are feminist blogs written by [...]

You know it’s sad when it’s a wee bit before midnight and you haven’t even hit the half way mark for work. Alas, if only I had an extra hundred dollars to spend, I could hire a work-servant to do it for me! I could then spend my day blogging about which color line metro [...]

One of my favorite cartoonists, Natalie Dee — herself a blogger — often makes fun of blogs in her cartoons, and it’s fabulous. Why is bloggers making fun of blogs so funny? I don’t know. Maybe to show we’re all so uber-hip and ironic and self-aware. But it’s what all the cool kids do, okay? [...]
