I just saw a story on Yahoo about the presidential polls. Some say Obama has a big lead but OH NO BREAKING NEWS others say it's a dead heat. I can't help but think that these stories are placed by both camps. McCain's folks don't...
I'm here in NYC for a media event for Madcap Logic, yet another showcase for this remarkable product for kids (forgive the shameless promotion) and I can't help comparing the mood here in this great city to how we felt in the technology industry in...
