Post-DNC, what else could I talk about but politics?

Last night, Hillary Clinton said "sisterhood of the traveling pantsuits." That has absolutely no relevance to the actual meat and potatoes of this post, but I just had to throw that out there. 

As I watched buzz-word speech after buzz-word speech last night, and heard a giant crowd cheer for what it cheers for and never receives every four years, I asked myself the same question you might guess I would ask, "Is there a Web site that sees through this?"

And with Google's 10th year anniversary approaching us this weekend, I must highlight their coverage of the election in response to that question.

Google has compiled a signature special section to the election that includes news headlines, YouTube video links, blog post links, candidate quotes, and news by region. Of course, they divided all of this by candidate.

Our friends at Google have also dedicated time and effort to cover the conventions for us, so that we won't have to start up a new drinking game when we notice how many times the word "America" is uttered.

This means I won't have to develop a drinking problem when the RNC starts-- Thanks, Google.

 

More info: If you have noticed my lack of posting recently, it's because I started school/am neurotic.

November 26, 6:18 PM
Here we are in terrible economic times near the holidays, and FDR isn't president anymore. Little Timmy might get a lump of coal for Christmas after all. I hate buying things. This stems mostly from the fact that I'm in college. To you it may seem... Read More

Republican, Democrat, or Independent, it's Super Obama World

November 15, 11:13 PM
Super Mario World is perhaps one of the most nostalgiac memories of generation Y. And right up there with it one day will be the memory of Barack Obama winning the presidency, and making history. The connection? Super Obama World. It's a game as... Read More

Vanishd.com: Surf the Web at work with no chastisement

November 8, 11:16 AM
Recently a job presented me with a daunting task: to pass the time between 9 to 5 with as little work as you can imagine, yet somehow not surf the Web (i.e. not get caught surfing the Web). On certain sites, you can pretend it's research. On others,... Read More
