"Alas, BTRT is still only available in analog formats. Which is more than I can say for TMVS." - Barry Parr

I've considered print, but it's a completely different business from online in terms of effort and cash required. #mybxb

Are local ad prices are holding firm or is there downward pressure? #mybxb

"Vimeo also delivers videos via H.264. I can still view them in Safari without Flash installed, This isn't a crusade against Flash in general, but I'm avoiding both as a user (installed on my computer) and as a publisher (all my videos are now available in H.264). But if you prefer to load from Vimeo via Flash, you're welcome to do so." - Barry Parr

http://CaliforniaWatch.org's new design is a big improvement, and I'm grateful to see them providing counterpoint on statewide news.

@yelvington Registration spam has become a big issue. I ban their IP blocks (Asia, mostly) when I find them.

Newsday's pay wall is not a strategy. It barely qualifies as a tactic. http://mediasavvy.com/2009...

@steveportigal Now that I'm used to gmail, I have no intention of going back to a client. I consider Outlook an assault on my dignity.

@steveportigal wired kb & mouse on top of the tv. it's a singularly unambitious solution: the only new cost was the dvi to RCA video cable.

@steveportigal Nothing fancy: an old mac mini used mostly for dvd, web video, hulu + a MacBook in bedroom for dvd's & Netflix streaming.
