What was happening while I was sidetracked by Christmas? Well, here are a few things I noticed and stockpiled:
If you're interested in a timeline of the Trent Lott story as it appeared in the media, the Online Journalism Review has it.
BlogCon participant Jenny got a mention in the WashPost "Blogging as Tech Story of the Year" article of a week ago.
What happens if the Bush plan to outsource government printing jobs goes through? Well, for one thing, archiving government documents if there's no centralized control of their publication becomes problematic.
20 municipalities have now passed resolutions instructing employees not to collaborate with federal officials, thus defying the Patriot Act. They aren't all Berkeley, either.
Finally, be careful out there: what you say in your pages may have unforeseen consequences.
