surpise: Peru’s Fujimori Calls New Elections, Will Not Stand As Candidate. I’ve always half-followed Peruvian politics. Which is weird except if you know that I grew up around the block from the Peruvian Embassy house in Ottawa, so at a very young age I developed a mild fascination for Peru and it’s politics.

that publications that place their editorial material online stand a much greater chance of increasing their subscription and newsstand revenue. I don’t have a lot of firm data to support my point of view, but I have lots of experience – I’ve been involved in publishing original material online for over 6 years now. And the only conclusion I can reach is that if the media are different, alternative channels support each other, they don’t undercut one another.

In Wired News today there’s an article that looks at magazines who don’t have much of an online presence: Publishing Without a Net. It’s interesting to read alternative views to my own.

Official Site of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games

Official Site of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games! It hardly suits a cynical bastard like me to love the Olympics, but I do. Winter, Summer, whenever. The more obscure the sport the better! Luckily in Canada the CBC has tons of live coverage, not just a bunch of overproduced vignettes. And we cover all the sports, not just ones that Canadians are in – which is a whole lot of fun to watch – cause some of the other sports are unknown here (mostly).

with something else all night, so I haven’t had time to do the full presentation (small though it is) of the pictures from last night. But I did take a minute to put up this really shaky mirror photo.
