I guess that's not as cool though, since I'm not getting paid to stand outside in front of the cameras like a dummy. |
Whenever the national news descends on Fargo because of weather, I feel the urge to make a fool of myself in front of the cameras. |
@yelvington - It's not the cold so much as the roads right now. And the ice. My apt. door is frozen shut. Waiting for management. |
The bush/shoe thing is funny until you get to the part about the trail of blood. WTF? |
Snowed in today. Technically iced in. This blizzard wasn't half as bad as they projected, but my door still froze shut twice today. |
@andrew_dunn A mom and pop bookseller on a small town Main Street can be a power seller on Amazon and eBay just the same. |
@andrew_dunn Because online, "local" can mean a lot of things and nothing at all when it comes to market fluidity. |
@andrew_dunn It's about connecting regional/national buyers to local markets. Local news is just the thoroughfare. |
@andrew_dunn Local advertising works, but it has to scale up. Newspapers tend not to think beyond their own circ areas. |

Playing around with Songbird music player this week. It's pretty awesome. Can't wait to see more plugins come out. |
At the rate the gmail team is adding new labs features, I might be checking the labs tab under settings more often than I check my email. |
@gmarkham An idea: Give away the classified space. Charge to publish in print. Charge for contextual promotion throughout your site. |
@gmarkham It makes that marketplace less fluid compared to craigslist. We should be giving away classifieds and charge for new value. |
@gmarkham The other issue is the idea of an up-sell. Buy it for print, we'll put it online, sometimes at extra cost. |
@gmarkham I think that's part of it. But look around. These are all poorly implemented vendor sites. |
This is a vendor problem. I imagine newspapers stuck on hideous print heavy legacy vendor systems. All it needs is Web forms and XML feeds. |

Are there even any good classifieds user interfaces out there at newspaper.coms? I bet none as dead simple as craigslist. |
