Que es?
The Weblog of Brett Singer. Bringing the world what it needs most - a blog.
Note: Sorry about all of the 'hot deals' entries (someone referred to this blog as
CorporateShill.com).
The deals and things are being fed into Multineedia.com. We will
soon move the deals category over to Multineedia so you don't have to read it, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

Girl of Geeks' Dreams
Jeri Ellsworth, a high school dropout who put a Commodore 64 onto a single chip and put it in a joystick. Now it's selling on QVC for $30, and selling well - 70,000 units in the first day. It's a testament to people just doing their own thing and having enough success to make a living.
Content Server - Looks Like Webjay
Stumbled onto this while looking for crap on singingfish:
Look at the various choices for what I imagine are playlist formats, or at least just different ways to serve up an audio file.
The company is LoudEye,
who just did a deal with AT&T Wireless (AT&T Wireless Debuts First-Ever Mobile Music Store in the U.S.)
The slogan is "Business to Business Digital Media Solutions"
aka, "makin' playlists for corporate types".

The business pages often have interesting stories, although there is rarely enough time in the day to read them all. Here are three that caught my eye today (12-20-04):
Little Old Lady Derails $2.7 Billion Real Estate Deal
Big Hong Kong Real Estate Offering Must Be Postponed, from the New York Times. Brilliant. A 67-year-old public housing tenant forced the Hong Kong government and three of the world's largest financial institutions on Sunday to postpone indefinitely a $2.73 billion real estate offering. Read the article. Another good line: Over the last several decades, the government has been slow to raise the rents of the butchers, fruit vendors and other long-time lessees of the retail space in the housing projects. Ms. Lo contended that private management would mean higher rents and an influx of more costly retailers that would leave her with nowhere to buy the fish and vegetables on which she subsists. It's great when something this huge gets derailed by one person and there's nothing they can do about it. Viva Socialism!
Toshio Shibata: Nice Photos From Japan

The Eli Experiment
The New York Times magazine has an interesting article about Eli Manning, which is less interesting since Eli actually had a good game this week (even though the Giants lost). It's worth reading for other info, too, such as Tom Coughlin timing how long Kurt Warner was holding on to the ball in the pocket when he got sacked.
