I've spent most of my copious spare time (joke here) this past week or so re-reading the glorious Transmetropolitan. Ten collected volumes of utter barking genius, and I thought I'd share with you one of my favourite bits, a quote from H L [...]

Smart Mobs: Tiger and the tweets

Sun, 29 Nov 2009 07:28:17 -0500

Scobleizer: Dying career: traffic helicopter pilot

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 16:24:58 -0500

Number of comments: 6

I still like listening to KGO Radio (AM 810 San Francisco) but on there they still make a big deal about having a traffic helicopter and a team that covers traffic. Every day they put on air someone caught in traffic too, mostly on the Bay Bridge, to report [...]
