A few days ago, I noticed that after my hosting service “upgraded” their management system that my posts here started to appear in chronological order, rather than reverse chronological order like a normal blog. Not knowing how to fix this, I decided to upgrade WordPress to version 2.3.3. This fixed the problem, though I’m still [...]
A few friends of mine asked me why I refused to put up advertising on AngryJournalist.com, even something as simple as a few text ads from Google AdSense despite it being relatively successful in terms of traffic. I have a few reasons for this.
First, I really dislike advertising. I run the Adblock plugin on [...]
It’s been two weeks since I announced the launch of AngryJournalist.com and since that time the site has exceeded every expectation I held for it. However, it comes with a mixed feelings about its so-called success, and I still see no solution for the problems that plague the journalism industry.
In just half a month, the [...]
Today, I launched AngryJournalist.com. Here’s its motto:
AngryJournalist.com is for the underpaid, overworked, frustrated, pissed off and ignored media professionals to publicly and anonymously vent their anger. Share your story. With any luck, you’ll feel better.

“We don’t know if it was a ricochet or what, [...]

I’ll be reposting this liveblog Twitter feed over at Illinoize as well throughout the evening. It’ll be random [...]
Not that the comparison above between Republican and Democratic donors from Chicago is any surprise, but the Huffington Post has a nice Google Maps mashup that geographically charts presidential campaign contributions.
Found any other nifty charts, graphs, maps, interactive Flash apps, etc. that deals with the primaries tomorrow? Put them in the comments, I’d love [...]
Ever since I read a friend’s Facebook note that Barack Obama’s servers were crushed by the power of hope, I wondered how his traffic levels compared to Hillary Clinton’s.
So, who’s received more Internet traffic? Answer: It’s all in how you measure traffic, which means there’s no clear winner here.
Using the site Compete.com to compare site [...]
For at least 4 hours, Barack Obama’s campaign Web site has displayed that image above. His Web site is down, servers overloaded just mere hours before the polls open for Super Duper Fat Tuesday tomorrow.
It didn’t come online fully until about midnight on Monday evening.
While some might see this as a good sign for [...]
