"15 Years - Reading the SAME story" - - Excellent.

Nice reminder that we don't need to read every damn thing about every subject, or even within our own niche interest.

This is something we all face on a regular basis and he addresses it beautifully. We keep thinking there is too much information when in actuality the filter we are using is failing.

VCool - great vid - Keep em coming OReilly.
Too bad he's not going to be at the Web 2.0 Expo in S.F. in March 09.
