My blogging colleague Jon Austin has an amazingly smart and in-depth (and l...o...n...g...) analysis of the current state of the presidential election, with 42 days remaining. - Mike Keliher
Article talks about a fascinating patent application filed by Google to put servers at sea -- both to harness the energy potential of waves and the tax-evasion potential of being beyond national borders. - Mike Keliher

"Take your socialism and shove it" is not too bold a statement to summarize the impact of Ayn Rand. Article include some interesting anecdotes and even some stats to illustrate the conservative/libertarian points. - Mike Keliher
Some insights -- from the client side -- on how PR firms can provide value in today's online-focused world, even when it comes to serving Web-savvy clients. - Mike Keliher
A client's explanation of why a social media-savvy company should still consider hiring a PR agency. Monitoring, storytelling, relationship building, research. - Mike Keliher
Yeah, I get like that too. One minute I'm tired as lead, I go to lay down in bed and then my brain starts thinking too much about whatever. The worst. - Alex "Lasagna" Scoble
Oh, I have a six year old and a two year old. They're like your twins, only more nuanced. : ) - Chris Brogan
My brain is that way most of the time. What I find helpful is to listen to something 1) intellectually stimulating -- so my brain will attend to it, rather than finding other things to think about, 2) which already I've heard -- so I can listen less attentively/won't be kept awake by the novelty of the discussion, and 3) which is relatively even tempo. Segments from the podcasts of Science Friday and Quirks & Quarks work well for me. - Joanmarie
I get up and read. It's not worth the time, lying there wishing you could sleep. Reading clears my head, and after about 15-30 minutes, I'm usually ready to doze off. - Mike Keliher
meditation and yoga, of course, but i doubt you would be interested. - Gregory Lent

The single best article I've read on the issue of PR / social media measurement. Less tactical and more strategic, it discusses what can and should be measured -- and what shouldn't. Read this! - Mike Keliher

That was an unconvincing article. I still want federation! - Mike Keliher

Hoping in an interesting discussion here - I feel that the post itself is short-sighted and self-confident. - Opensource Obscure
When people say they want 'federation' do they mean that every post from every user on every server should go to every other server? Or are they willing to accept that they'll only see future posts from their friends on new servers? In which case each server only has to handle receiving messages for the contacts of their users. - Adewale Oshineye
It's a damn shame that Pete Rose isn't in the Hall of Fame. It's a damn, dirty shame. I know what he did wrong, and I don't care. Some say it's a matter of principle that he's not in the Hall. I say that, as a matter of principle, he *should* be in the Hall. - Mike Keliher

It's probably not so much the gambling. It was the constant lying that he didn't gamble and all the antics he was pulling. IMO, if it's all about stats, he should be in no doubt. - Rodfather
Well, baseball lost its moral high ground a couple of strikes ago, IMHO. Stats are stats. Pete may have lied, but his numbers don't. - Chris Kim A
Yeah. If people think Pete Rose was the first baseball player to simultaneously kick ass and be a rotten asshole, they're a bit off. :) - Mike Keliher

If you read the Hall requirements it's not about stats. Stats is not the only requirement. And it's not about being a rotten asshole. If you think the stats should overcome all, fine, but at least get the reason he's not inducted correct. - mark green
From the page: "If you've got a warehouse/squat/garden/shack/trailer or whatever that you'd like to put three very grateful young revolutionary anarchist motherfuckers up in, please do holler at me. Otherwise we're gonna stay under a bridge. Cheers!" - Mike Keliher
