Techcrunch, Mashable & Scobleizer think blog news sites like Memeorandum & Blogniscient need shorter URLs.
For Sale: the two letter dot com domain ez.com
An excellent domain on which to launch an EZ to find Web 2.0 site !
We entertain 2-3 serious offers per year. The most recent serious negotiation broke down after we turned down a cash offer in the upper 6 figures. That should help define the term 'serious offer'. We are not interested in renting or leasing the URL www.ez.com. We are not interested in trading for another domain name. If you have a serious offer, feel free to contact us.

About Web 2.0
"What information consumes is rather obvious: it consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention, and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it." (Computers, Communications and the Public Interest, pages 40-41, Martin Greenberger, ed., The Johns Hopkins Press, 1971.)", Herbert Simon
A couple of excellent articles about Web 2.0 and attention.

Follow Up From Yesterday. Follow-Up From Yesterday
I've received a lot of emails after my posting yesterday about Shelby. I feel that I want to follow that up with a word or two.
First, last year was the nightmare year for us. Shelby was selected by the girls in her class as a kind of sacrificial lamb. The acts of aggression ...
... Jeanene and I found a book that really helped us understand the dynamics behind last year's nightmare. This book opened our eyes. What I have seen affirms this woman's basic premise. Adolescent girls can be VERY aggressive, and their aggression is often hidden and carefully planned. Also, the schools are often completely unaware of the situation, at least institutionally unaware. The institution does not want to be aware because it takes so much work to set it right.

Finally, thank you for your kind love and concern. This is not a sickness unto death, and Shelby will be fine.

Visitors. Visitors
I remember when I first told everyone my name, I was worried that people might show up at our church because of Real Live Preacher. I don't know why I was worried about that, but I was. Actually, I have an idea of what made me nervous, but it's the kind of stuff you talk to a therapist about. Something about meeting your alter-ego, something about worlds colliding, as George said on Seinfeld.
Well, no one showed up for a long time. Then some college people came one Sunday. Then a few other people. Then Matt from Correction. There were a few people from a church in Austin, and a young couple from San Marcos came a few Sundays. Then a guy and his wife from Austin. Then some people from Christian Century. And finally, the woman who wrote this and a friend visited a few weeks ago. She's a very funny writer. I told her I knew a good mechanic in town.
Not really that many people, if you think about it. I mean, that's all of them. And you know what? It's not a big deal at all. People come to church for all sorts of reasons. I don't talk about Real Live Preacher at church unless someone asks, and it really doesn't come up that much, which is nice.
It's been almost a year since I came out of the closet, so to speak. I do not regret the decision at all.
peace,
gordon
