Press release: "NPR will benefit from a bequest of more than $200 million from the estate of philanthropist Joan Kroc." 

The Clark campaign is hiring various kinds of Web devs. 

Jeff Jarvis report from Always On breakfast in NYC. 

Yesterday's big insight was that it takes years for people to get to know you through your weblog. Today's (thanks to Ed Cone, below) is that weblogs are just part of the new political process.  

Ed Cone: "So it's months before the NC primary, and a year before the election, and Dean has this network of well-equipped local volunteers working away on coordinated projects. The cost of this locally-run operation to the campaign is the cost of materials and shipping." 

Feedable creates "the feeds that someone forgot." 

Wired: "If you are an inventor, you had better team up with someone who is cunning and vicious." 

David Pollard commends Business 2.0 for an insightful choice of social network software as the technology of the year, but (correctly) points out that personal content managment technology (weblogs, RSS) is a necessary companion.  

I got an invite yesterday to do an academic-style talk at Microsoft Research, about weblogs. I said yes of course. It'll be in a big auditorium, with an open invite to everyone at MS. Curtis Wong is the host. I've known him for years, and he was also a keynoter at the PEI media conference last month. 

Ted Ritzer set up a tree of knowledge on his Salon weblog. 

Two years ago: "No matter where you live, in what time period, no matter who you work for, you can think for yourself." 

Tim Berners-Lee: What's new in 92. For people curious about the origins of weblogs, this site looks like it might have been the first.
