Housecleaning

I’ve done a little housecleaning in the links bar.  I deleted everything that hasn’t been updated in 6 months or more.  If the blogs or sites come back to life, I’ll put them back. 

Of course I also added some new things.  

–The Montreal Sound Map is part of an internet phenomenon around acoustic ecology.  I’m not sure what documenting all these sound spaces adds up to but there is a strong “check it out it’s cool” factor.

–Michael Berube is blogging again, which is nice, though he appears to lack an RSS feed.  Because I was paying attention to other things, I failed to notice that he’d been invited to the National Communication Association this year, which I also failed to notice had the incredibly bad form to consider inviting David Horowitz to address it and then sub in the more polite but equally heinous Anne Neal.  I wish I could tell you that I was part of some boycott in response to Marriott’s support of Proposition 8 but really I was just too busy with other stuff to go this year.

–Dave Noon is no longer writing his blog Axis of Evel Knievel but can be found at Lawyers, Gun$ and Money, which has had some great political coverage last fall.

–spacing montréal has wonderful historical images of the city, often in juxtaposition with a current picture.
