So. There is something brewing out there. They call it the Web 2.0 or something.

Supposedly its going to be the bomb. As with all things, living through slow change is so much different than reading about it in a history book, but I guess its an improvement. I know trying to keep track of my bookmarks is a real PITA.

So, right now I am posting this from my new browser, Flock. Home I drag that link, it placed it, etc etc.

Flickr Photo

I drag the photo from the Flickr topbar and bam, done.

It integrates seamlessly with Blogger, Flickr and Del.icio.us, so I can quickly and easily do just about anything I can think of which is internet related. Now if it managed ALL of my email accounts in a gmail.com type fashion, or if it integrated with GDS…hmm…

Still in its infancy I guess. Pretty neat tho. Sure makes it easy to post to my blog :)

Something I haven’t noticed reported in the media lately…

Sites such as MoveOn.org, combining the opinions of thousands of
individuals, forcing legislators to respect the common man again.

Its a brand new democracy, baby. A special interest group for the
common man.

I bet there are think tanks, at this very moment, working on how to
convince Joe Blow to sign a digital petition asking their legislator to
support artic drilling…

If special interests want their special status back, they are going to
have to pry it from my cold, dead fingers. Viva la internet! Everyone
SHOULD sign and fill out EVERY petition that comes there way that they
agree with. Just like voting, but every day…more important than voting.

Oh how fun online an online dictionary can be…

I don’t understand?  How does Congress benefit from this?  Who is paying them off?

Oh well, it was a scary idea, I’m glad they changed it regardless…

That decision, said the House’s third-ranked Republican, Deborah Pryce of Ohio, “dealt a blow to the rights of property owners across the country.”

Yea, a real blow to property owners…You can see whose pocket she is in.
