Now that ICANN has changed its RSS feed so my aggregation loop doesn't choke on it, I've given the official ICANN RSS feed the most prominent place on my icann.blog.us web site. This means that whatever ICANN publishes -- even an item it might wish to title 'Bret Fausett is a Big, Fat Idiot' -- will write to the upper left column of my icann blog. I have a few other items syndicated there as well. If you're writing about ICANN regularly and I've missed your weblog's RSS feed, drop me a note and I'll add it to the syndication column. You can title your items whatever you'd like, and they'll appear in the left margin of this weblog.


Competition at its best. I'm at the Starbucks in La Canada, California, drinking coffee and checking email while I wait for the morning traffic to subside...but I'm not using the Starbucks-T-Mobile wifi. As I started to log in this morning, I searched for nearby networks and saw a wifi hotspot from the competition next door. The hotspot is named "Goldstein's Bagel Bakery Public." What an idea: compete with the Starbucks next door by providing free wifi. And great advertising too. Next time I wait out the traffic, I'll stop next door.
