My friends at Gartner are hiring a new member for their web team. If you are within commuting distance of Stamford, CT (about 45 minutes outside of NYC by train), I highly recommend considering this job as I know first-hand how awesome this team is to work with.

I just saw a copy of the latest issue of DMNews and Dave's hard work garnered the Wadsworth Atheneum a feature story and Cronin and Company some major kudos.

One of the web's preeminent marketing websites, MarketingSherpa, has just published an article which may start a web standards stampede. The focus is Firefox, but the underlying message is standards, standards and more standards.

In the interest of observing politics and activism online, I have signed up for numerous newsletters from groups across the political spectrum. The one thing I find very striking is how much freedom is given to an individual to add a personal message or rewrite a letter in support of or against a particular issue by the “left.” The “right,” however, does not seem to have any interest in their activists' opinions.

All this week, the Secretary of State’s office is offering demonstrations of and soliciting public comment on the three finalists for Connecticut’s electronic voting machines.

Here in Connecticut, the Secretary of State is getting ready to purchase new computerized voting machines and is doing an exhibition of the different options throughout the state's five Congressional Districts. As computerized voting is such a hot topic right now, I highly recommend anyone and everyone who lives in my state go to one of the exhibitions and offer some sort of public comment.

I knew things had taken a turn for the worse when DMCA passed and media owners were discussing their desire to spy on consumers' computers in search of illicit media, but who knew it had gotten this bad?

In hopes of stemming the massive explosion of open source database use, Oracle is preparing an "express" version of it's Oracle Database 10g line: Oracle Database XE. Like many things on the web right now, it's currently in beta, with a full release planned for late this year.
