A nice feature
The Knoxville daily newspaper has an interesting feature, called Random This, where they send a correspondent out with a video camera to document some feature of life in Knoxville. It’s not hard news, but it is much more detailed than a column would be. 800 words about a visit to a tattoo parlor or shooting range would not be terribly interesting, but the video version is. It’s a good example of something that could only be done online.

An unusually quiet day
Definitely one of the most quiet on record, I guess everyone really is on spring break.
On another note, I just visited this blog’s Technorati profile and I find that I’m linked under “a loner’s temperament” and experpted on a Malaysian blog.
Most surprising of all though is being linked from the Columbia Journalism review. They picked up on my Cheney – Abu Ghraib theory. It’s quite flattering.
Now, back to taxes.

Of minor interest
I’m in danger of receiving my first payment check from Google Adsense for the ads on Jargon Database. I’ve almost cracked the 110,000 page view barrier as well.

A lovely new liberal site to replace the others
BloggingHeads .tv, a video dialogue, between Mickey Kaus and Robert Wright, two New Republic style liberals. Very well done and informative. It’s basically a lot of video files with the two principals on splitscreen.
An interesting concept and well executed.

Splitscreen conversation on Blogging Heads.

A blog for Dave
New Donkey, a Democratic blog that avoids most of the thing I dislike about democrats. It even reads a bit like it’s written by Dave Henson.

Christmas a day early
David Friedman is now blogging! Now if we can only round up Michael Sheaur we’d have a very thought provoking internet.

A good interview
With Markos of the Daily Kos. It seems his personal style is a lot like his writing style.
Via Althouse.

A cooler part of the blogosphere
Mountain Runner– a good design and a lot of information. Where else can one find out about Somali Piracy, as well as more current info about the region?
