Capitol Hill Blue: The Oldest Political News Site on the Internet

Capitol Hill Blue: The Oldest Political News Site on the Internet

They may be the oldest but without a usable RSS feed they have gone off my radar. Their site quit working in my feedreader a while back but just now got around to looking to see where the rss.xml feed went and it doesn’t appear to be available any more. There is a link that will let me subscribe to the daily email list but that’s not the way I get my news any more. So I guess I won’t be reading Capitol Hill Blue any more unless another site links to it. :-(

Does he actually expect anyone with an internet connection to believe this crap? Of course the speech was made in Tulsa so maybe they don’t have the internet there.

Boing Boing: Websense censors Cory’s podcasts - retaliation for criticism?

Websense strikes back at Cory Doctorow for criticizing them. These folks need to clean up their act and fix the problems rather than blocking any and all sites that are critical of them. Asshats!

Wired News: DIY Nuke Detector Patrols SF Bay

Once again, the basement/garage operation beats out the multi-billion dollar government research folks.

Dept. of Homeland Security seems to just LOVE these big over priced programs that they can farm out to their buddies.
