    Rounded Corners - 125 (the funnies)

    Yesterday’s news, delivered today! An interesting analysis of cover stories from Business Weak, Fortune and Forbes. Not surprising, by the time editorial considers it newsworthy enough to make the cover, it’s no longer news. Caveat Lector.Sadly the article falls short of a full on analysis. So let me just draw some conclusions from my entirely non-scientific small-sample research: cover stories, negative and positive, are highly correlated to good looking glossy pictures.

    Life, freedom and the pursuit of AdSense. From Kent Newsome’s must-read Declaration of Blogging Independence:

    We hold these truths to be self-evidently pie in the sky, that all bloggers are created equal, that they are endowed by their Computers and iPhones with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are lots and lots of Links, Thoughtful Comments and the pursuit of AdSense Dollars.

    I see CAPTCHA in your future. (Works better with eerie sountrack, so just imagine) Sterling Camden has an interesting take on what the Web would look like in a few years.

    Leap frogging. The upcoming Compiz Fusion. It will be interesting to see Apple and that other big company from the north play catchup to Linux.

      “Business Weak”? Freudian slip?

      I nicknamed it Business Weak when they published the “Digg is worth $x billion” cover article. The cover picture was good, though.

      According to comments on YouTube, it’s a French celtic hip-hop band called Manau, and that piece is “J’entends le loup le Renard et la belette”.
