Wow! Holy Public Outcry, Batman!

Noticed this courtesy of The Aesthetic. There is an article in the Breeze about a homeowner in RHE going to jail for not properly permitting his home improvements. Well, the article has 527 comments going right now. Fun reading.

UPDATE - the amount of comments has spawned a meta-article, about the commentary itself. Welcome to media 2.0, folks. The meta-article has 59 of its own comments.

Your Chance to Bitch Directly to the Breeze!

Just saw this on the Breeze website - their stories are now taking comments. These experiments by newspapers tend to end up either heavily censored or don't last long. Have at it while you will.

Oh, and on another tack, I'm back from Thailand. If anyone's interested, I'll be writing about my trip on my personal site, and posting what's likely to be a zillion photos on my Flickr page. I made a special trip to visit one of the main ports in Thailand, and I'll cross post about that here when I get to that part of my photos, as I think us local crane-heads will find that of interest.
