Crowd Sourcing Applications Social Networking on a Granular Level

Tue, 22 Apr 2008 15:37:50 PDT
I’ve been into Wikipedia lately, it may not be the most perfectly politically correct source for definitive information, but it works. Crowd sourced information is far denser than an algorithm when it comes to encyclopedia worthy content. Twitter turns out to be a great source of crowd sourced information too, it’s the main reason I ‘put up’ with the enterprise class texting application. I follow a group of smart people and ‘ask Twitter’ when I have a question that I know members of my littl

Cons: RCMP Raid Was a 'Publicity Stunt'

Wed, 16 Apr 2008 13:10:43 PDT
Pass the tissues. Oh how I weep for those poor victims of the RCMP raid of the Cons' headquarters. Not. The tories are scrambling to paint themselves as being oppressed after yesterday's raid (which continues today). The problem is that they appointed the two Elections Canada officials they're now suing and that they applaud the RCMP (even protecting Zaccardelli to the bitter end) except when they're the targets of a legally-sanctioned warrant. And now, they're also trying to implicate the Li

Oil up! Freak out! Dow up? Shut up!

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 12:50:34 PDT
Oil up! Freak out! Dow up? Shut up! The state-run media in Canada (and the citizen-owned media who do their best to compete with them) all lament, daily (with intra-day lament updates, all day long), the price of a barrel of oil, and the resulting price of gas. (Of course they don’t have the foggiest clue what they’re talking about, but they pretend they do.) Even as I was writing this, the state-owned CBC did a story about the latest rise in gas prices. Apparently it’s getting h
