A note on the Amazon ads: I've chosen to display current events titles in the Amazon box. Unfortunately, Amazon appears to promote a disproportionate number of angry-left books. I have no power over it at this time. Rest assured, I'm still a conservative.

Seen on slashdot: For the past couple of months I've been checking out the goings-on over at the blog for geeks, aka slashdot.org. If having barely-informed teen-aged salesperson bugging you at an actual store isn't annonying enough, well at least one Web sitewould like for them to annoy you while surfing the Web.


According to Rackspace's co-chairman, one-third of users approached via chat engage in conversation with a salesperson, and half of those take the discussion to the next level.


Just what is the "next level?" I mean, I know what it means when a woman says it to me, but in this context I must confess I'm at a loss -- and a little weirded out.
