The Conservative Party’s Campaign Blog is only marginally better, but they almost ruin it all by not actually identifying the blogger! Their podcasting offering is better, but the instructions are terrible and inaccurate.
I read about this somewhere
yesterday (can’t remember where) but it has to be seen to be believed. The Liberal Party of Canada has a section named “blogs” on their main website but it consists of the most amateurish, poorly-executed waste of space possible. It’s really hard to imagine that professional political consultants can stay in business without having learned a single lesson from the (at least) two Canadian Federal elections and three US Electoral cycles since the advent of Blogs as a useful form of political communication.
Oh hang on, there is something more poorly executed – the Liberals’ podcasting page looks even worse.
I’ve been trying out
the new version of Firefox that was released the other day, and I note with displeasure that the close icon is still not on the tab you want to close itself, but over on the right-hand side. Otherwise it’s fine, though I’m not likely to move from Safari, which I switched to a few months ago.
Fun and interesting:
A Tale of Two Fish: A Short Story about Copyright and Fair Use. Even more, though, it’s about Creative Commons. From Yiibu, which calls itself “an open content company”.
Just in time for
the Christmas shopping season, two stories about abusive Internet retailers: Thomas Hawk’s PriceRitePhoto story about a bait-n-switch camera store and Cameron Barrett’s UrbanFlorist.com scam story. The message here isn’t to avoid shopping on the net, but to remember that Google is your friend, and before shopping with a company you haven’t used before, it’s worthwhile to check around before putting in your CC #.
