seattle times: Bloggers beware! Copyright battle might be coming - 07/02/08 01:58 AM
Here's a helpful warning to bloggers: "Be prepared." It's the Boy Scout motto and it's also good advice for people in all walks of life. It appears that many bloggers, myself included, are a little unprepared for the possibility of close scrutiny of blogging. What if we were told that we had used too much of someone else's news article in our blog entry or that we got our facts wrong and are guilty of negligence or even defamation? It's a scary thought, but that's the risk we take in offering our work in a public environment.Have you noticed that, as bloggers, … (52 comments)

seattle times: St. Patrick’s Day in the Emerald City - 03/13/08 04:17 PM

seattle times: Why you shouldn’t fear drops in home prices - 01/15/08 04:03 PM
"The drop in house prices is a good thing." So says a recent editorial, entitled "Relief for home buyers," in The Seattle Times. Exactly. Thank you, Seattle Times editors, for succinctly stating a fact that cuts to the heart of this matter. If prices are always rising, then that is certainly not a good thing for buyers, who have to pay more for the same home. Trends that are good for sellers will not be so good for buyers, and vice versa. Prices have been reaching all-time highs in the past few years, so the price dip that is occurring in … (5 comments)
