David Weinberger is a sweetheart, and he couldn’t have offered a more generous compliment. This does not, however, mean that I’m married to Halley. Not that there would be anything wrong with that, if I weren’t already married to someone … Continue reading →

Here’s a short thought, provoked by this post at Jenny’s blog. When the publication/distribution profiteers paint themselves as the defenders of artists’ rights, they always frame the issue on the royalties of the individual artist, which that artist presumably loses … Continue reading →

We’re thinking about a redesign of Seabury’s website based on Moveable Type, and the question arises of whether to allow our design to encompass any pages not generated through the MT engine. The rationale for static pages (in the sense … Continue reading →
