A call for opinion

So, I want to know what everyone thinks of the Wikidot site I'm working on.  I want to know what you want to see on the site.  Right now, it's my super-spam RSS feed, which has all of my activity from Hulu, Netflix, Wakoopa, Twitter, and my blogs all in one place.

Earth Hour! Take part, and help a little bit...

So, I have recently been talking alot about my own power usage over the past couple weeks, and here is your chance to do sometime!  Tomorrow March 28th from 9:30 - 10:30 PM (your local time) turn off all your lights!






This movement is getting bigger, and while it isn't enough to solve the problem of using too much power, it definately helps a little bit.

Go to Whitehouse.gov!


Go to Whitehouse.govObama is hosting an experiment to try and get the American people involved in a nation wide town hall!

All you have to do is go to the site, vote on a few questions other people are asking, and maybe even propose a few questions of your own.

I think this is an awesome idea, and everyone needs to take part.

Thanks... and participate!


FYI, all of the hyperlinks go to this site.

Another Don't Vote Video... and my comments


So, The real question I have is how effective are these commercials? I understand the reverse psychology aspect of the video, but is it really a good idea? I guess we will see on November 4th. I know that I'm going to be late for work on that day, so I can vote while most people are at work, but how many people will actually turn out? I hope more than 50,000 or so. It would me amazing to see over a million people turn out at the polls. Will you be there?

So, I guess I will see if anyone is going to read this... I'll have to put up a poll here, and at my normal blog too, but I want to conduct a survey. Who will you vote for?

FBI can issue warrentless spying on Americans?!?!!

I read on Slashdot that as of October, the FBI will be able to spy on Americans with no warrant!

This is horrible. First Airports can take and inspect your computer (no more digital privacy...) then Police can track you via GPS tracking without a warrant (No more public privacy...) , and now the FBI can spy on you from your home?!?? That means we won't even have privacy in our own home.

People made a big deal because Google was invading privacy by scanning email (the same way any antivirus program does), then Google gets attacked for Maps with Street view (still pictures of public spaces.) How do we not protest the government spying on citizens who are in no way even suspect to crime?

Hello 1984.
