The pressure that telecommunications companies can put on Congress is pretty amazing…

Av, a talented guy that I used to work with at EarthLink has a blog and he wrote a great post about Net Neutrality. It says what need to be said in words much more eloquent than I could put together, take a look.

Found them!

I finally found the images that are disturbing Muslims around the world. A blog on blogspot has the political cartoons unedited.
