What would it take for you to add the one.org banner to your blog to support charity? I have added it to my own and would love to see other bloggers amplify the need to stomp out poverty.

If the activism irritates you then I understand...

Steve, you say TechCrunch "got it spot on." I'm confused. The headline for the write-up on TechCrunch reads "Microsoft LiveStation: Slingbox without the box." But this isn't a Microsoft product, is it? The correct name is just LiveStation, as far as I can tell.

Can you clear this up, please?

Hi Ed

yeah I guess what I meant is their coverage was accurate but you're right, their headline is misleading. Agree with your Echo Chamber comment back to Long. I just annoys me that the A listers just hit publish to get the exclusive rather than checks facts. No point in doing videos if people aren't going to actually watch them and get the story. Noooo, much better to just get something out.

I guess this is where bloggers still have much to learn from journalists
