    The New York Times and others are reporting that Knight Ridder has sold to McClatchy. Just a note from my Internet-focused brain:  Every article I read that says something like “with the future of print newspapers in question” or “with declining print circulation” grossly overlooks the fact that Knight Ridder Digital, the online section of…

    Powerpoint, online. This doesn’t work that great yet, but it’s coming. If nothing else, I want to import my ppt-produced slides (even just as images) into something like this so I can post them online. TechCrunch » Thumbstacks – Ajax/Flash Web PowerPoint

    So there was this ice storm, right? Well, sleet, slush, whatever you want to call it. I had just finished class, saw it starting, changed the dead batteries in the point-and-shoot, and starting fooling around. By the time I was done shooting useless video with my little ugly camera, one of our editors had spotted…

    Win a trip to the developing world with Nick Kristof. What? And you won’t just be watching. I want you to report as well – probably in a Web log or video blog on the New York Times Web site, maybe in some other way. I’m open to other ideas as well, but I want…

    At some point, I realized that someone other than my mother might actually be reading this blog. If we choose to accept that as a fact, then the following question presents itself pretty rapidly: “Who the heck IS reading this?” Please, don’t answer that just yet. The real question, of course, is “Who am I…
