Back at NASH, since 1998
My latest article has appeared in The Georgia Straight today [tgs]. The article is about social media services, most significantly Twitter, being used as a dating tool. The trouble is that while I've heard stories of people meeting via Twitter or on Facebook actually tracking people down who had was...
Conan O'Brian's last show on NBC was on Friday night. Unfortunately due to a bout of insomnia the night before I couldn't stay awake for the whole thing. However I do remember seeing Beck at one point, but that may have just been a fever dream. Now all we have...
From January 14th through to the 18th the Canadian University Press (CUP) held their 72nd annual national conference [cup] bringing university and college newspapers from around Canada together. After a few years away I returned to the conference, this time as a guest speaker. Here are the sessions I gave...

"Hosting The Tonight Show has been the fulfillment of a lifelong dream to me. And I want to say to the kids out there watching, you can do anything you want in life unless Jay Leno wants to do it, too." ? Conan O'Brian
Having entered, as of this afternoon, a some what similiar period of uncertain continued employment I sort of know what O'Brian's going through, though I'm not a beloved comedian and probably less capable of weathering an extended period unemployed. Conan's show is the most enjoyable The Tonight Show has been...
I feel sorry for Conan O'Brian in all of this.
