Monday Hockey Roundup

Wild weekend on the minor hockey front. We kicked things off with a Regina Pats game attended by both teams which was a lot of fun, although a ticket mixup meant the two teams were on opposite sides of the arena. I got some good mileage walking back and forth to check on [...]


Have you heard of this iPhone thingy?

Not sure if it made the local paper but those kooky funsters at Apple have announced a new cellphony/music player/web surfer thingy. It got a little bit of press on cable.
Honestly, I was worried that I would end up as the only blogger who didn’t post about the iPhone announcement. But then I [...]

I’ve been reading a lot of Seth Godin’s stuff these days. LOTS — books, e-books, blog posts and anything else I can find. He’s not only a breath of fresh air but he’s helped me look at the work I’ve been doing in a new way.
How’s that? Well, in Free Prize Inside [...]


My Political Compass

I found this neat survey over at the Doc Searls weblog last week. It attempts to plot one on a 2×2 matrix based on the more traditional ‘left - right’ political continuum but also on a social axis.
