Times mag cover story on Dean campaign social software. Heavy emphasis on social aspect. Good job of capturing the community-building at work, but a little dismissive by default by understating the importance of what's happening there in political terms. Misidentifies Doc Searls as a campaign consultant. Glad we came out first. 10:51:51 AM    comment []

"I like to think that I love my family almost as much as opponents of gay marriage love their families..." A middle-aged dad (me) opines on gay marriage in this morning's newspaper column, "Queer Eye for the Straight Tie." I suppose my newspaper audience is more conservative than my blog audience, but on Friday the wife of a local fundamentalist minister surprised me by saying she agreed with me on this subject...as I wrote, the culture is ahead of the government on this one. 10:29:24 AM    comment []
