In Wired News today,

Adam L Penenberg updates us on how Salon is doing with the combination of site subscriptions and click-through day passes: Salon’s Balancing Act. I subscribe to Salon, so I don’t often see the day pass ads, but I was thrilled when I noted that The Economist is using a similar strategy.

Someone named TDavid has published

Someone named TDavid has published

a long piece about podcasting and the Winer vs. Curry fracas.

that Canadian cell providers are working together: New national Wi-Fi network could threaten radio at his I Love Radio weblog.

But it bears watching nevertheless.
