Did SiteMeter Commit Suicide?
UPDATE: It’s Working Again, But Unfortunately, My Traffic Sucks

As of right now, it’s dead. Donald Douglas at American Power and Doug Ross at Director Blue both report that the best, easiest-to-use traffic analytics site failed to renew its domain registration, an error that would require a special kind of stupidity. Let’s all say a prayer that they can get it fixed, because without SiteMeter, I […]

Late Night Administrivia

— by Wombat-socho The death march to April 15 has begun, which means that instead of the previous 46 hour a week schedule I was working, I will be working 54 hours a week until the end of the tax season. Feel free to quote Han Solo on the subject of rewards to me. This […]

Chris Cassone Strikes Again:
‘My Baby Loves Barbecue’

by Smitty Hot cars, a cool girl, some rockabilly, and intense eats. How much more American could this song be? Meanwhile, my baby loves a paycheck, and I must apologize to the loyal readers for my general absence the last week. There is a new job, which is pretty much the same old technology contracting […]

The Power of Prejudice

Rule One of “How to Get a Million Hits on Your Blog” is shameless blogwhoring. Think of it as an existential philosophy: In the New Media environment, that which is not promoted does not exist. “I blogwhore, therefore I am.” So, after I was the first to report Rick Santorum’s endorsement of Curtis Bostic in […]

Monday Open Thread: The Tax Man Cometh

Friend of the proletariat Matthew Yglesias (Photo: Matt Roth) The news that left-wing blogger employee of Slate magazine Matthew Yglesias has purchased a $1.2-million townhouse in D.C.’s Logan Circle neighborhood has produced much chortling. Yglesias, after all, mocked property rights as the “myth of ownership.” Andy at AOSHQ says: So, party at Matty’s this weekend? I mean, […]

Missing Word in RNC Report: ‘Blog’

William Jacobson at Legal Insurrection spots the omission: Even when the report does mention “social media,” it’s in the context of getting out the vote or having the party apparatus find a better way to reach voters. I would not be surprised if the RNC spoke with some of the salaried conservative media class who […]

The Huffington Post Lies About Steven Crowder’s CPAC Monologue

by Smitty I happened to be in the ballroom for the remarks made by Crowder, as mis-reported by the Puffington Host:               Steven reports: So HuffingtonPost is outright lying and trying to slander me, and I could really use support. As you know, Ashley Judd has recently been heard […]
