The U.S. Army has decided to censor blogging from its ranks. Pre-approved blog posts? Whose job would that be? I wonder if that would be a fun job in some ways.
Hey Scott, My video critique was a bit odd to do. At first I felt awkward because I had no idea what I was going to say or where I was going to go with it. It made me happy to see the end result, mainly because I got all the points across that I felt were necessary. I still think it's rough and needs work though.
Scott, I think that that is a really alarming development, and I was shocked when I first heard it. My buddy Vinh, a friend of mine since 1st grade, is stationed in Iraq and writes a blog about what happens to him while he's over there. I can't imagine what would happen if an amazingly intelligent guy like himself couldn't say what he wanted just because the government is feeling insecure. We really take our right to say whatever the hell we want for granted these days, eh?
I live in Northampton, Mass. I am married with three children.
I am managing editor at Advance Internet. I have worked as an editor and writer for a number of Web sites, magazines and newspapers.
I am currently guest lecturing for a Convergence Journalism course at UMass-Amherst.
I play in a band called Storybox. We are about to release our first album this spring.

Sorry for the long comment. Actually, no I'm not.
