The Black Bridge of John Negroponte

Aliette Guibert pointed out to a Council On Hemispheric Affairs memorandum about the nomination of John Negroponte to be U.S. ambassador in Iraq. The document alerts that he has a sordid human rights record in Honduras and is famous for admin the brigades of the death in Nicaragua. This guy is a kind of Rudolf Hess wannabe. Maybe they are sending him to Iraq in order to improve the torture techniques of Abu Ghraib prison.

Akma on Switchers

AKMA was wondering exactly about the process of moving from one CMS/Blog to another CMS/Blog. How many variables one must take into account before take a decision! The most predominant factor is how one can migrate the database. Well, one may choose not take any ancient post to the new blog at all. Start from the scratch. Literally. Why not? After all, if someone is looking for a specific entry of the late blog, he or she have Google and Internet Archive as friends. And I'm happy with Blogger. No muss, no huss.

Wave bye-bye

Well, Radio Userland is now history. I got tired of Winer's World. I confess it was useful in the beginning and I'm grateful for that. But now is time to migrate. It was not the $40 bucks regarding the renewal of the licence key that made me change of mind. Radio Userland software is stuck in time. Besides the outliner tool, Userland has nothing more to offer. Oh! All Manila farms were abandoned too. Ghost towns. Let's move!
