I’m having a blast out here, meeting so many clever people and draining my battery (and others’ Powermonkeys) filming tons of video. Yesterday I had a lovely, energizing lunch with Jeff Nolan, then kicked off Von.x by interviewing Robert Scoble on search and online marketing.
It’s not all nose to the grindstone, though. I feel […]

Busy Saturday: Parents coming down for lunch and a museum, making the two hour trip back to my hometown with them for dinner, then going to spend the night in Columbus with Karri, whom I still can’t believe has put up with me since we were 13. She and I have got important things to […]

People who worry too much about over-sharing often find the world soon stops sharing with them, dont’cha think?
I am, believe it or not, fiercely private - about the stuff that I feel really matters. If anyone was lame enough to read my blog really closely, he or she would notice that there are topics I […]

I’d like to see this British show. But the author of the article’s insistence upon the importance of “discipline” is what provoked this post.
Over the last few years, I’ve lost a fair amount of weight. In all, I’m down about 8 sizes from what I was. I’ve gained a bit back here and there - […]

Tiger Woods gives me something to think about:
The greatest thing about tomorrow is, I will be better than I am today. And that’s how I look at my life. I will be better as a golfer, I will be better as a person, I will be better as a father, I will be a better […]

Johnathan Pearce manages it quite succinctly in a post on why prostitution should be legal:
Of course, unintelligent, feeble-minded people screw up, but the case for liberty is that people are better off if they are presumed to be best able to judge their own interests. The fact that some cannot do this does not overturn […]

Heather Armstrong, aka Dooce, reacts to coming in at number five on the Guardian’s “world’s most powerful blogs” list:
Holy Effing Shit. Do the people who write The Guardian drop mushrooms on a regular basis? I know, I know, with great power comes great responsibility, so I’m making the promise to you now that I am […]

Because they ARE running as a team. Dave Winer:
I would never stand by and say nothing when people tried to keep an African-American in his or her place, as the Clintons have repeatedly tried to do with Obama. It was over exactly this issue that I went with Obama, after comments made by President Clinton […]

David Mamet (of all people!):
What about the role of government? Well, in the abstract, coming from my time and background, I thought it was a rather good thing, but tallying up the ledger in those things which affect me and in those things I observe, I am hard-pressed to see an instance where the intervention […]

I had a lovely lunch on Fountain Square today with a generous friend. The food was pretty great, but the company and conversation were way better. But that’s an endorsement of my friend, not an indictment of the restaurant at ALL. I really enjoyed it. (It’s a great deal for lunch, […]

I’ve given up on Furl, which truly stood out from the pack due to its caching of saved pages. It’s been buggy as hell for a while and ridiculously frustrating to use. Consequently, I stopped tagging pages altogether, which left me with loads of tabs open on a permanent basis - a situation that makes […]

I’ve blogged the next date and host for the Supper Club, but we filled up so quickly that there are no spaces left. You can add your name to the waiting list, though.

Yesterday was the one year anniversary of when I landed in Cincinnati. I have grown to love so much of this city and many of its people. It’s been real, and it’s been fun, and it’s been real fun.
Will I stay here? I don’t know. My lease is up […]
