		<description><![CDATA[For several years I have assumed that the next governor of California would be a Democrat&#8230; and many more after that one. Why? Because California&#8217;s Republican Party appears to be inept (and I am not making a positive statement about the Democrats). Californians tend to be moderates: Socially liberal and fiscally conservative (except when voting [...]]]></description>

Online stores closing their affiliate programs because of the Advertising Tax (aka the Affiliate Tax, Amazon Tax and several other names).

		<description><![CDATA[There is a lot of buzz lately about Google trying to do too much. I&#8217;ve read people comparing Google to Microsoft&#8230; and not in a good way.
Google&#8217;s Mission
I don&#8217;t care what Google says it&#8217;s mission is (especially since my personal experience with Larry Page showed him to be evil). Google&#8217;s mission is simple: Gather, analyze [...]]]></description>

It looks like Chrome OS is a cross between a souped-up Web browser and a watered-down OS. With the lack of a harddrive, users must rely on The [...]]]></description>

We do a better job policing ourselves than to have bureaucrats who don&#8217;t understand what we do regulate that which they don&#8217;t understand, not to mention if politicians start to make deals about completely unrelated issues to get it passed.

Craigslist has revenue of $100 million. That&#8217;s amazing for such a small company. What&#8217;s more amazing is that Craigslist is pretty much all that is left of the $4 BILLION classifieds business. By giving most of [...]]]></description>
