Charles Rangel, for launching an important discussion.

Is lifting weights after age 50. (Remember, low weights and high reps.) Nothing reduces the pain better. Not even aerobics. Although a nice Sunday bike ride is still the very best thing...especially when it doesn't hurt.
November 27, 2006
Bill Hilf, now general manager for platforms at Microsoft. Whether he'll be listened to or not is another question.

September 25, 2006
The way Zenoss is using XML to close the gap between users' spotting problems and delivering solutions.

the New Politics Institute and their paper on mobile campaigning.
September 04, 2006
CrooksandLiars. Great site.
August 28, 2006

August 21, 2006
Anyone who sees the need for both the U.S. and Israel to change tactics.
August 14, 2006
Apple's license of its iPod technology to major carmakers. (Whether it's smart for you to buy such a car is another thing.)
August 07, 2006
Jay Rosen even if he thinks I don't agree. Sometimes being Clued-in means asking the right questions.
July 31, 2006
William Hurley. Now if you've got a blog, Bill, blog.

June 19, 2006
Larry Augustin. Open source values matter.
June 12, 2006
Eben Moglen, who said "the politics of open source are as American as apple pie." They are.

Glenn Greenwald, who knows what scares me and writes about it clearly.
May 22, 2006
Markos Moulitsas. No one yet matches his combination of political and tech savvy.
May 15, 2006
A political party taking advantage of opportunity. Numbers don't mean anything if they can't translate into votes.
May 08, 2006
US First. They would be wise to use more open source.
May 01, 2006
Sun Microsystems. Committing to open source is the right strategy, but everything depends on execution.
April 24, 2006
Mobile Linux. It's where the action is. Too bad the action is in China.
April 17, 2006
Reed Hundt , the best speaker (in my opinion) at Freedom2Connect.
April 10, 2006
Amazon.Com. Their time in the limelight has ended, and they won.

February 06, 2006
Jeff Vick. Hi boss.

January 16, 2006
The partnership between the US Patent Office and open source advocates aimed at helping the government find prior art on patent filings.
