Alright, I’ve had enough whining from Dave Winer’s blog. Obviously all he wants to rant about during the election cycle is his slant of politics – which of course, while different than my viewpoint, is full of old-media bits and bites. He has made some good points over the last few weeks, but he’s still swallowing all the leftist-media bullshit and regurgitating it on his blog.
We all have that wonderful freedom here in America to talk about what we want to, I’m simply exercising my freedom to look elsewhere for information. I respect Dave Winer for many of the great things he has brought forward in technology that improves all of our online lives, but for now I’m unsubscribing from his blog Scripting News. Maybe in December or January I’ll check back to see if he has his politico hat off.

Ah, I’d been waiting for the next Fedora release. I’ll be trying this out in MS Virtual PC 2007 (running on Vista) to see how well it works in the new VPC.
With my intention on running everything from the web, I may take another stab at using Fedora as my desktop OS again in place of Windows. I tried this a couple of times over the last few years and was always left feeling like I was missing something.
Since I’m moving away from local software, I may be able to use Linux as my OS, and still enjoy all my online services. We’ll see – but it’ll be fun to try.
