I can understand that that means nothing to you. But, for me, a publisher who is defined by his insubstantial InterNet presence, that is a major milestone!
Because the writers are separated from me by miles, on various continents, to actually hear THAT HUMAN VOICE, inflection, laughter, to be that much more *substantially* close --- well, it's worth sharing with you.
BOB POWERS suggests that I should "cheer up..." JENNIFER BLUE and I made strategic plans for her upcoming series of interviews with the Californnia gubernatorial candidates that fell below the Mouthpiece Media radar screen... WALLY WORT wanted to let me know that his prose is so pristine that I (as a 'Net geek who does not know sports from shinola) shouldn't even deem myself worthy of editing his awesome column.... JOE O'NEILL an update on his next article...
This is getting good.
And as the week unfolds, you'll see us cover the entire gamut of this MACHINE talk, looking at the machines which dominate our pomo existence. And maybe GENERATing some new thoughts about the ubiquity of these contraptions in our daily lives.
Hey! Write in and let us (and the other readers here) know what you think!
And if you know of a new site for our Link Partners Program, let us know about that, too.
We're glad you're here. As you can see from the nav' bar to our left, we have a lot to offer this(and EVERY) week. Stick around. More importantly: TELL EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS. We want you here EVERY DAY.
WHY?
Because we like you....
Be Good to Each Other,
Rod
Our Editor does listen!
