Blog Spin
[Media Source*] The views and skews of blogs from around the world wide web (and beyond). Here is a snippet of what some bloggers have on display on their sites.
In The Spotlight: Google Blog
Using the Site Search feature, you can narrow searches to a specific website [admissions site:www.mit.edu]. But what many people don't know is you can also use Site Search to narrow searches to a top level domain, which I found handy during tax season: [1099 site:gov].
Other Blogs of note:
- UN Dispatch: "(News Roundup) Selected summary of United Nations news and events-Two billion people need access to basic sanitation by 2015 to meet UN target..."
- Flickr Blog: "(Pigeon In The Wheel, London) Lest the our bird peeps feel left out given our recent dog and cat extravaganza, here's different look at the London Eye (with bird)."
- Engadget: "(The Juicy Fruit iPod shuffle) Yeah, but how are we supposed to resist the temptation to chew the iPod shuffle now, huh?"
- World Mag Blog: "(Punishment to fit the crime?) Some drug and alcohol offenders sentenced under a Kentucky judge are given the option to "do time" by attending worship services rather than going to jail or rehab. District Judge Michael Caperton, a Christian, said he wants to "help people and their families." But some see the alternative sentencing option as a violation of separation of church and state."
- Iraq Blog Count: "(Iraqi blog hosting service!!!) Someone sent a link to a new Iraqi blog hosting service. No idea who's behind it - could be anyone. Anyway, it's here, the blog service is run from here, there is a sort of a messagey board thing here, some news feeds, some info... and a bit from the "about Iraq" page..."
- Regime Change Iran: "(SOS Iran Petition) SOSIran.com has just released a petition directed at the leaders of the G8 nations. Read it here and consider helping them. Both German and Persian version are available."
