I’m glad someone caught it

Thanks to Jeff Veen for catching the most outrageous line of tonight’s Online News Association meeting. I could barely believe my ears. Just how much wine was consumed prior to this one?

Separately, Jeff voiced a telling comparison: Orkut and LinkedIn are like high-school yearbooks. You get everyone to sign it, and then you put it on the shelf. They don’t do anything. Amen. I also learned about Upcoming.org, which I had somehow never seen/heard of. I guess not getting out much means I don’t have a lot of use for a collaborative event calendar, but it’s still nifty bottoms-up stuff.
