Today, Lindsay chats with Toni Schneider, CEO of Automattic (WordPress Software), about the best and worst parts of Web 2.0. I love WordPress, we (Wallstrip) love WordPress, you would love WordPress…if you blogged. If you don’t blog, at least learn about it’s history, from Matt , the founder. That picture of him is recent. He …

BlogTalkRadio is helping the Twitter 'Twits'
I will still not use Twitter . Still no point. I do continue to believe that a twitter program – microblogging – for stocks would be useful and I am sure we will see it soon. That’s cool. All that said, Alan Levy’s team at BlogTalkRadio and Dave Winer created ‘twitterGrams ‘ and it is …
Internet News from The Blogging Times
My friend Eddie Daroza is just getting started at The Blogging Times and he knows the internet. Yesterday, he wrapped up the YouTube 2006 Video Awards . He’s 24, a journalism grad, lives in San Francisco, and has no interest in Newspapers (not that there is anything wrong with them). If you want a good …

My friend Steven at the Value Blog Review has been busting his ass learning about the stock market and discovering blogs and is having a blast. He is a new investor and is tackling lot’s of the work needed to research blogs and styles. He is a lawyer – but who is perfect goddammit! :)
A community at every blog…
MyBlogLog started this for bloggers in a big way. It can go much deeper. I was visiting the kickapps office last week in New York and they are on to something big. I think WordPress, Google Blogger and Typepad could be the real launching pad for communities of the future. If WordPress were to roll …
Speaking of Community…
I need to update my blogroll: First – Andy Swan. He proves that very tall people can be smart too :) . Andy is a good friend who is committed to blogging (and some think should be committed). His opinions are awesome. The design of his blog is one of my faves. Neat and organized. …
CES – Nerd heavan but a complete waste of time
CES (The Computer Electronics Show) was once cool. Before the internet! Vegas was once cool. Before condo’s and before Sinatra died and Celine dion moved in. Together it is a crowded shithole where you can’t get a cab. If you must go for this show, stay at the Venetian. Trust me! The only news from …
If I could blog like someone else…
These days it would be FLY. The guy kills me. He writes like I assume he talks. I do that sometimes, but I leave out the swearing which my wife hates and if I do it as often as I speak, there would be fbombs essssploding all over the place. It is not just his …
