"it is the best of times, it is the worst of times."

coming off the political soapbox of earlier entries for a bit, let's get back on the geek one.

#2: the second video. i actually saw it a a few years, but kind of eerie how similar stuff has been happening as of late (Google buys DoubleClick. Microsoft buys Aquantive. NewsCorp buys MySpace.

now it's time to catch the bus home in the snow.
