late afternoon low tide at the jetty new year's eve
tiny peak showing on the last day of 2010
pink storm clouds retreating over the horizon as the sun rises
windy on the way to check the surf with boscoe
windy windy xmas day
hazy light with high clouds sets the scene at dunes this christmas eve
strange sparkly gold lichen growing on the bushes at dunes beach
very tasty with rigatoni chicken olives basil and ratatouille
The Blast Shack

We asked Bruce Sterling (who spoke at Webstock ‘09) for his take on Wikileaks.
The Wikileaks Cablegate scandal is the most exciting and interesting hacker scandal ever. I rather commonly write about such things, and I’m surrounded by online acquaintances who take a burning interest in every little jot and tittle of this ongoing saga. So it’s going to take me a while to explain why this highly newsworthy event fills me with such a chilly, deadening sense of Edgar Allen Poe melancholia.
But it sure does.

Thank you Bruce Sterling for this great backgrounder on how information is spread and controlled. Once again Science Fiction presages reality.
