Turns out Matt Mullenweg’s birthday is one day before my birthday (and the same day as my daughter Lucy’s birthday.)  And Danny Ayer’s birthday is one day after mine.  So I’m gonna be partying this week.  My brother and sister are coming in, lots of people will be at my party - and I get to “cry if I want to” (and fly in Al’s Italian Beef.)

Looks like the Home Media world is heating up - via consolidation.  Maybe we’ll even have reliable home networking - soon.  Then we just need to get out of the ice age and provide REAL broadband to the home - like 100 Mbps.  Or maybe Municipalities will step up and take some of the responsibility upon themselves to give us real broadband.

Yahoo’s corporate blog has a wide range of interstsing things to talk about.  Maybe this year - Yahoo helps expand the defintiion fo corporate blogging.

Cars and PCs synced up. Imagine that?  I can’t wait til:

- I record a song on the way home from work on my car radio, and upload it into my home system

- I create a playlist of the music ‘for today’ and download it into my car, right before I leave for my morning commute

Until we can do these two simple tasks, via Wifi or Bluetooth - we aren’t there - yet.

Thank God Gaurav (and Ashish and Manish) returned to India.  What a blessing to meet and work with them!

Dave Winer is getting artistic at CES and getting aclimated in a new world.  It seems that folks have to schlep all the way to Las Vegas - just to meet each other.  Meanwhile Staci Kramer is finding lots of cool stuff to blog about.

And some people are still addicted to Macs and Apple.  They should go to one of the de-cult-ification unprogramming centers.

Yah can’t keep a sucky kid away - even after he grows up.  Now I’m not saying that Ed’s brother Joey doesn’t suck, its just that he’s back.

Michael Arrington is getting all bubble-icious.  Isn’t allot of that caused by TechCrunch - or not?  Hugh thinks its important.

Maybe Mark Graham will call back, maybe not.  I think pissed off the NBC lady when I asked her about the pending lawsuit between some close friends of mine and iVillage/NBCi.  The case has been in the works for almost two years now and just when they thought it was going to be resolved.  Well more on that later. Meanwhile this sounds like a smart strategy for NBCi. I wonder who they’ll implement it with and with what technology.

Bebo bookstore, Pew SNS research stats, SlingCatcher, SNS as jobs sites and therefore somebody cares,

Slide actually raised $20M - for a widget thingie?
