Just in case you absolutely can’t get enough new media, you should A) receive podcasts from Business Week whose latest one (the first in a ten part series) is all about super duper bloggers then B) spray all electrical outlets in your home with a fire house until you’re sitting in total darkness, then venture out into the sun and don’t return until your clothes are tattered and you’ve forgotten how to say your name without grunting (via Mircopersuasion).

The Onion AV Club has redesigned and looks great. They’ve also got several RSS feeds, the lack of which prohibited me from reading them more frequently in the past. Now, I’l never miss another interview with Pat Benatar again.

Famtracker now has an RSS Feed. We rejoice.

Or we did. They managed to remove it when putting up their vacation announcement. Wha?

Television Without Pity, still 1996 over there. Still no RSS Feed. Still not able to print out a complete recap. Still need to spend 45 minutes clicking through 13 single pages like a lab rat asking for a food pellet. We cease rejoicing.

I had no idea the folks who brought you Wikipedia had all these other projects going on. Wild.

SFist applies for press pass to Blog Business Summit. Blog Business Summit gives shady-ass answer. SFist calls them on it by posting about the whole affair. BBS Organizer DL Byron and Jackson West hash it out in the comments of post, email about it, get it resolved. All is well. Resolution at the speed of thought.

Of CNET’s Top Ten Dot Com Flops, the one I miss the most is Kozmo.com, which delivered stuff to you for free. It was like a drug store on wheels, perfect for when you needed batteries or dental floss or a bag of Funyons and were too lazy to leave the house.

I hear Pink Dot in Los Angeles does the same thing and has attained some mythic status. Based on it’s Sunset Blvd. location, it became the Stoner 9-11, munchies or condoms at any hour of the night. Alas, we’re not so lucky here in San Francisco. And although I only used Kozmo once, I still miss it a little (via Kottke).

Okay, I should know the answer to this but I don’t. Everytime I take a picture and want to post it here, the picture is gainormous. How do I size a photo so it fits all nice and neat into my template? I’m using TypePad.
