that I’m moving in about 10 days. I haven’t arranged a truck to help with my washer and dryer and bed and stuff, I haven’t really cleaned up and thrown out all the crap I’ve accumulated in the past 4 years here yet, and I haven’t done the change of address for any of my bills or my phone or anything. Whoops.

There’s an excerpt
from Jon Lebkowsky’s upcoming book, Virtual Bonfire, available in the latest issue of Mindjack magazine. This excerpt is about organizing and activism on the net – something Jon knows more about than most.
Blogging other blogs
is a little tired, but still, there’s a burning question out there. How often will Tom of Barbelith and Katy of Kitschbitch redesign riothero while young Mark is gone? Making weblog entries, that’s one thing. But Mark is a redesigning fool!
I just went by
my neighbour’s sites on the webloggers ring – on the left is Ritalin Junkie, which is lovely and a fun read – on the right is a Dutch site, Vantienen.com. Can’t make heads nor tails of it. To Jish: feel the power of suggestion!
Wired is running
a fantastic story about Lawrence Lessig’s speech at the Ninth World Wide Web conference in Amsterdam. One thing that he neglects to mention but forms the backdrop of the whole story is that the Telecom Reform Act (the one that the CDA came packaged within) explicitly paved the way for AT&Ts current behaviour. That should have been a bigger story than the CDA at the time – it sure is now. By allowing mergers and combinations in the telecom space that were previously illegal, it opened the door to many really cool business combos that weren’t possible before. But it also raised the spectre of a virtually private network that could be controlled by capital in ways that the net cannot be. And, really, who needs CDA-style censorship when you have a closed network in the first place?
