LV Ramblings Makes Top 5 on PBS Blog


O.K. A little shameless self-promotion here.

Mediashift is a PBS blog, hosted by Mark Glaser, that tracks how digital media technologies like webblogs are changing the way we get our news and information, while also providing a place for public participation and feedback. It features a weekly Top 5 of people, trends and technologies on its radar.

Well, get this. Wednesday's story about AT&T's failed attempt to blog in Lehigh Valley cyberspace as HandsOff43, made this week's Top 5.

Holy cannoli! I've been linked to PBS! I thought they were a little more sophisticated than that. They must have missed most of your comments, where I'm described in less charitable terms.

I'm quite honored.

But I'd rather be a Chippendale.

    Good for you Bernie! It's always nice to get the props.

    The alterntative is that PBS is struggling on the money front.

    congrats on your honor, but remember that the chippendale's are more selective than PBS

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
