"Hey kids, this Summer when you’re all being inundated with this fourth of July bullshit don’t forget what you’re really celebrating… A bunch of white slave owning congressmen that didn’t want to pay their taxes."
Dazed and Confused, 1993

Signs with HarperCollins after five blog posts. [via.] It says they had an offer, which is much different than completing a deal. Very true — these are not quite the same things….. Nothing official yet, per Blakeley, but it was just yesterday that I figured this might be coming.

My sister, Nicole, was born on the fourth of July. We are both much older now, but are better friends than ever before. My mom wanted to wish her a very Happy Birthday from the entire family. We love you very much!!

They don’t have to compete with it, all they have to do is purchase the information from TMZ. Newspapers don’t, but plenty of so-called mainstream news organizations do. There’s a tremendous hypocrisy involved here because, I’ve already used one simile of cocaine growers, lets use another one, this is like a grey market gentleman businessman who doesn’t dirty his hands, this would be networks, and you have your behind the scenes thugs that do the wet work.
So everybody sits around and harrumphs about the poor ethics of TMZ, they’re buying news and it’s all unethical, that’s all true but turn on CNN, turn on CBS, turn on ABC, what are we seeing? We’re seeing the same coverage, much of it derived from, if not taken directly from the same people they’re criticizing. It’s just a question of plausible deniability. It’s a distraction, I don’t think the problem lies with TMZ, I think the problem is in what we define what national news coverage should be.

gary: http://blog.twitter.com/2009/07/may-tweets-be-with-you.html I talked about this a few months ago at the 23 minute mark of this keynote Big Omaha - Minute 23:00 Re: Twitter trademarking the word “Tweet”
Twitters stance on this is the correct one for their brand in some ways and so it’s important to understand that you as a company should have never gone into those waters in the 1st place. Your brand is your world and building someone else ( especially when platforms continue to change every 3-4-5 years) is much more of a bad play then just getting slapped with Trademark issues!
“I really hope that people understand, like here’s what drive me crazy, when I see products like Tweetie or Twitterrific I’m always like, ‘nooo don’t you know what’s going to happen?’ You know facebook’s going to open up and then you’re going to want to have the open, you know, API to facebook status but now your called Twitterrific so it’s a little niche and then…You know, just keep that in mind if you’re a serial entrepreneur and you like to do niche little businesses, keep in mind that whatever the hot thing is at the time, it’s going to be the hot thing of the time so go with maybe a little bit of a more global name that you can like bring that into. There’s just going to be new things, its always going to change.”
"As the industry nears its 100,000th post-recession layoff, dragging newspapers, magazines and television down with it, it’s become apparent that selling ad space is an unsustainable revenue model for media as a whole. It is from the chaos of this moment that the relationship between content and capital will be defined for generations to come. Either quality content and valuable journalism will prevail, or a failing ad industry will survive by cannibalizing faltering media outlets: pitting the sponsored versus the authentic in a deathmatch for attention, relevance and the almighty dollar."
