BEGS SEVERAL QUESTIONS
I guess it is insulting to ask designers this talented to do a Radio weblog theme!
Blurbomat - the person or the weblog?
Ceasing - by your choice or someone else's?
Blurt. Skomp. Dvvvvvt.. The sites, sounds and smells of Blurbomat ceasing to work on any level. At all. o... [Blurbomat]

ANOTHER DESIGN ENDORSEMENT
What should a good weblog design cost?
I MENTIONED BLOGGER DIFFICULTIES BELOW. I should have mentioned that if you're tired of Blogger, Stacy Tabb can set you up with a new, pretty site like this one. And she's cheap! reasonable! UPDATE: Hey, check out the new, Sekimori-designed Andrew Olmsted site. Cool. [InstaPundit]

THE APPLE RUMOR I WANT TO HEAR
and then see in reality is a G4 iBook, 800Mhz, 512MB, 30GB drive, combo drive, wireless NIC for $1500 bundled with a special agreement from software vendors for migrating my Windows software to the Mac for around 10% or 15% of the purchase price of the software!

MY BOOKS ON GOLF DIDN'T HELP!
Too much?. Okay, do we really need all these books about weblogs? Is it really that complex a thing that we need instruction? I think the basic how-to at blogger.com does a fine job. Or better yet, just look how others are doing it, and jump in. I think we're reaching the over-sat... [brilliant corners]
Other than reference books on HTML, web design and such, I only have one book on weblogs. It's great. Sure, some of what is in it will be obvious to someone who has been prowling weblogs for a while, but much of it is aimed at the person who wants to build a serious weblog with decent readership. Pick up a copy of Rebecca's The Weblog Handbook. It is more than worth the $14.00 (or $11.20 at Amazon). She knows what she's talking about.

PRODUCT PROMOTION
Apple & Nikon may be missing the boat!
WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE AHEAD - Robert Scoble rants about Apple's new found method of trying to minimize product rumors and leaks. Nikon catches some flack as well. The best part of this is Robert's link to Phil Askey's reviews at dpreview; they are indeed the best!
Why can't big companies figure out that it's the smaller sites that get people excited about their products? Heck, I was really close to buying a Macintosh.
By the way, Phil Askey writes the freaking best reviews of any product anywhere I've ever seen. Any journalist who wants to see how to review a product should see his stuff (his Nikon 5700 review is only about 1/2 of what he usually does on cameras). I'm in awe. [Scobleizer Radio Weblog]
