This is so sad. Kind of the worst of the internet. So connected to people and yet so removed at the same time.

Terribly sad and disheartening, raises lots of questions on how to control live footage and how to better inform users of internet perils.

There’s social networking of the MySpace and Facebook variety, and then there’s social networking of the premium, “classy,” “sophisticated,” “not-for-everyone” kind that carries a price to join. The latter formula is what Mint 11 is proposing. Something tells me that this might not work out very well as a business. Unless the membership is pretty loaded, in which case it might be just fine. Admission is a Bargain, But the Devil is in the Details ...

Miami actually had two Fight the H8 rallies today. I went to the South Beach one, because the other was guaranteed en espanol, and it is hard enough for me to assert my dignity against unjust social systems in English.When I got there at 1:00, the crowd was slim and muscly and mostly wearing tanktops.

An iPhone application called FrontPocket, built by Jacksonville, Florida-based design firm Updatable, launched today. It behaves as a mobile extension to 37signals’ Backpack service, a business organization and data sharing utility. As any 37signals fan might intuit, a development of this type must be one thing above all: simple and straightforward. The better to conform to the less-is-more ethos maintained by the team behind Backpack and its siblingware. I think it’s safe to say FrontPocket ...

Starting tomorrow, a bunch of leaders from the loser party will meet in the spicy gay Mexican outpost of Miami, Florida, for the most important event of the year: the Republican Governors Association’s 2008 Annual Conference (.PDF). Yay! They will supposedly discuss the future of the party, but since there is no future, it will just be five or ten potential 2012 candidates (including one S. Palin!) forging alliances to determine which will lose to ...
