While Barack Obama had a lot of success spreading his message virally on the Web before he was elected president, his victory speech is on its way to becoming one of the fastest-spreading viral videos of all time. The official campaign version of the video on YouTube (embedded below) alone has been watched 1.9 million times in the past two days. But more than 500 different versions and clips of the...

As I held my infant son this morning and watching the sunrise together, I realized how proud I am of my country. We're capable of change. We can rise above intolerance, racism , class divisions, propaganda, and fear. I had faith in America, and it was justified last night. Thank you. Also: The highest turnout since 1908? 136 million voters. 64% of eligible voters. And a majority, not just a plurality,...

Even here in Barcelona, I was impressed to see so many stations (was it 3 or 4?) with coverage throughout the night. I flipped channels until around 2 AM or so and the local channels were still discussing every inch of the campaign and showing interviews and updates from Chicago and Arizona. On Wednesday morning the talk for the Americans over here was all about the election results but the same was...

While Netflix may be the venue of choice for many people looking to watch films online, those of us who don’t want to shell out $9/month may often find themselves resorting to other, less costly options. Hulu is obviously a major presence in this space, with a substantial catalog of classic films already available for free, but one player that emerged late last summer is Youtube, which debuted the...

Something I wrote six years ago : There was a time when a city could be the capital of a century, the way Paris was the capital of the 19th century. In the 20th century, particularly the second half, cities could only be the capital of a decade--for example, Washington, D.C. was the capital of the '60s, or Los Angeles was the capital of the '80s. The '90s, however, had two capitals: Seattle and New...

As moving as Barack Obama's acceptance speech was, I was almost equally as touched by John McCain's classy and gracious concession. Subscribe.

I should have done this last night, but was distracted by an invitation to visit some real people, which you should never turn down. We had great fun with Stevie and the girls, his brother Kevin, brother-in-law Ally and his girlfriend Kay. I don't think I have ever heard such ecstacy in my whole life as when Stevie finally worked out how to score a goal in Football on the Wii. The extra time alone...

I've been thinking about what I wanted to post - I think I'm still at a loss of words, but I wanted to post something just to commemorate. I also, wanted to step back and note the bitter irony of the increased African-American participation being a factor in the passing of Prop 8, which was couched in the same language and frame as the anti-miscegenation laws a scant few decades ago. I'm also amazed...
