The April Fools begin. Andrew Orlowski fires the opening shot with "You've got Blogs! AOL buys into homegrown media" in the Reg:
AOL-TW executives seemed pleased with the company's acquisition spree.Link Discuss"You can't really put figures on this," one executive told The Register, "but we think we have 78 per cent of the libertarian news blogs, 91 per cent of the ClueTrain Manifesto fan sites, and 59 per cent of all blogging female arts graduates, many of whom are Virgos," he said.
"And the possibilities for vertical integration are endless," he enthused. "No cat will ever go ill again in America again in obscurity."
I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.
