Paraphrase.

I’m a bit restless.  I still have a much longer post on why a major local media organization is hamstringing themselves by not making their content direct and accessible.  Why it’d behoove them to, why they had a chance to do it right from the beginning, corner the hyperlocal market and probably make a pretty penny all while innovating.

It started to unravel and become disjointed so it now sits in a GOOG docs drafts folder for a rainy day.

How did I get here?  Like I said, I was restless.  I decided to check out Wilson’s re-design.  Exceptional as always, it put Django in front of my face again.  I’ve always wanted to work with this platform somehow.  Specifically, with Ellington.  That reminded me about how I couldn’t find something on the web that I know was in print and how much this probably happens to thousands of other people who live close to me.  Blah, blah, blah…back to the top of this post.
