I'll even comp them FM Radio and SmartManila clients custom skinned for their campaign.
Dave Winer wants the Edwards campaign to reconsider its turndown of BloggerCon:
"We can improve the Senator's weblog, and I'll guarantee it. If the Edwards campaign sends their chief blogger to BloggerCon, and feels, for any reason, that it wasn't worth the time, I will personally work for the Edwards campaign for the double the amount of time they feel they wasted. I am that sure we can improve their blog." [EdCone.com]

I never thought about a car doc for a tablet. That's a cool idea, what other tablet doc scenarios are out there?
 This is something Scoble would love. A tablet PC hooked up as a GPS navigation system for a car. I have a friend that did something like this with his laptop, Microsoft's Streets and Trips, and a GPS USB unit ($169). The benefit is exceedingly detailed maps on a much larger screen than dedicated models. Another upside is cost since the tablet is multi-use (you can also plan your trip while at your desk). The downside is a lack of audio guided navigation on the good dedicated systems (correct me if I am wrong). [John Robb's Weblog]

I was asking another programmer what he thought about google and blog results dominating google. He called it a bug. At first I did not no what to say but if I hear that again I think I'll point out that if its a bug its a bug in the web not google.
Here's an example of how weblogs can have influence on corporations. Plaxo is a start-up with substantial investment capital. A quick look at Google shows how weblogs are influencing the information flow on the product they sell (both pro and con reviews). What is the value of a highly ranked review on a product keyword in Google? A couple years ago, I was talking to PR insiders (off the record) and the consensus estimate was that a positive product mention in the WSJ or NYT would cost $100,000 (what is worth depends on how well the company can monitize it). Positive mentions in other publications scale down from that. What is the third and fourth link on a product name in Google worth using this benchmark? Given that it has a high level of persistance (and that people often use Google as a means to find the company/product site), it could easily be worth $40-$50 k. Given that, why aren't PR agencies all over webloggers that do product reviews to ensure that the reviewer gets all the relevant information needed to make an objective review? I guess they are too busy sending out press releases that nobody reads. [John Robb's Weblog]
