How Long Can the Country Stay Scared?. An argument against the current practices of the Department of Homeland Security. Schneier says that the DHS is “inadvertantly… achieving the same thing” as terrorists. I’m not so sure it’s entirely inadvertant. No one who has read Orwell can think so.

an article called Blogging Across America, which is fine and great except that the site the author built is NOT a weblog. “Weblog” is not just the newfangled name for a personal website.

Within the category there are almost innumerable options – but at base, chronological organization is essential, and I would say links and commentary on those links as well.
