Received an e-mail from John Hiler today, the guy who wrote the Google bomb articles from a couple weeks ago. Turns out he’s launching a new e-zine about weblogs titled “Microcontent News“. The article announcng the new zine is here, and here’s a snippet from the article that explains why Hiler is so enthusiastic: If…

One of the things that was really starting to make business travel bearable last year was high speed Internet access in every hotel room I stayed in. I’m a Hilton bigot (as a HHonors Diamond member, they upgrade me to embarassing rooms when I check in; how can you turn down a 1900 square foot…

Don’t even know why I bothered to check the weather (I’ll be there all week starting tomorrow):
