ABOUT CLICKED

The modern news consumer ignores Weblogs and online citizen journalism at his own peril. But not everyone has the time to keep track of what's going on the Web. With this blog we hope to track the highlights of what's being discussed online so when news breaks from the Web, we're ready.

Will Femia is a Weblog enthusiast who, through good fortune and dumb luck, was introduced to the form as his position as chat producer for MSNBC.com careered into obsolescence. On any given day, Will can be found having already spent an unhealthy amount of time squinting at a computer screen.

I'm not sure what to make of the fact that TweetBook got clobbered with traffic today. Do that many people want their old tweets turned into e-books? I think I'm missing something.

This person is selling everything they own before a major life change. That's fine and we've seen variations of that before. What's cool is that the "everything" is cataloged on one long page of thumbnail images. What would everything you own look like spread out down a page item by item? I can't tell if this is a lot of stuff for someone to own. I think it's actually not very much.
