FRIDAY ROUND-UP Bush the Environmentalist? - In his blog debitage, Stentor Danielson attempts to explain how Bush can reconcile his contempt for environmental regulation with the eco-friendliness of his ranch. Read it -- it makes sense, and it's important to understand the enemy. Better Than the Book You're Reading Now - If you haven't yet discovered Salon blogger Claire Smith's Life in LA, allow yourself a couple of hours, start way back here where it started in June, and read it, from the beginning. Yes I know I mentioned this already in last week's round-up. It's that good. Blogging in 3-D: Just for fun, see what you think of Jim Gasperini's technique of using animated gifs as a means of creating the illusion of three-dimensionality. Mid-Life Crisis: Washington State newspaper columnist and new Salon blogger Chuck has a wonderful shaggy dog story. Proportional Representation for BC? - Those wacky British Columbians have another interesting experiment in participatory democracy, a Citizens' Assembly whose members will be drawn by lot, and who are charged with developing a binding referendum question for proportional representation for the province. It's Not Me...It's Her: Leslie Talbot of the Salon blog It's Not Me...It's You comes out and tells us who she really is and what she really thinks. I still think she's a professional writer for the Boston Globe. Otherwise she wouldn't have this wild illusion that writing an excellent blog (which she does) is going to attract the interest and attention of publishers and literary agents. As most of my readers know, this is normally a thinker blog not a linker blog. Advance apologies for not acknowledging who put me on to the above links. I forget, and if you remind me I will correct the oversight. 2:54:50 PM  trackback []  comment []
