The URL speaks for itself. This website let’s you stay on top of all things political. Specifically, it uses Technorati to show which politicians are rising and falling in the blogosphere-a phenomenon that has become increasingly relevant with politics and journalism.
This set of very suspect snaps showed up on someone’s iDisk yesterday – could this be a very crafty mockup, or is it in fact the headless Mac we’ve been hearing so much about? This seems like it might be one of those typical pre-MacWorld hoaxes. But hey, who cares. It’s kinda fun to look at. I’m suspicious in that we don’t see a video port on these photos of the ‘iHome Media Centre’. And why has Apple gone all ‘UK-style’ on us?. Or perhaps there is no VGA/DVI port for this baby – it’s gonna be an s-video out or some kind of wacky outboard composite connector or something. Or maybe it’s truly meant as a media server, no head, only connected to via a remote PC or Mac. I dunno, but it’s fun to speculate wildly, isn’t it?
The Savannah Morning News has moved into it’s new home. Like many businesses, they have outgrown their old facility. Working for the News-Press in the late 80s and early 90s, we felt very much a part of city, sitting in the midst of everything. The annual St. Patrick’s Day parade passing by out front. We were only a stone’s throw from City Hall. Moments from the ports, the police barracks, and all sorts of other key Savannah institutions. But while it’s sad that the paper is moving out of their 100+ year location in downtown Savannah (my hometown), it’s clearly a great new facility, and the costs to add these types of improvements on the old building would have been prohibitive.

Here’s an interesting take which seems inspired by Wired’s ‘Rants & Raves’ feature. This guy has a project where he sends a disposable camera with attached instructions for the postal workers to take photos. The results are interesting.
