Daily Links for April 10th

  • Jalopnik – Car And Driver Prank Awakens NASCAR To Real World – NASCAR April Fools – Car and Driver, not recently known for either humor or relevance but benefiting from a revival under new EiC Eddie Alterman, reported President Obama had ordered Chevy and Dodge out of NASCAR as part of an April Fool's Day prank. NASCAR didn't get the joke, with many teams, fans, executives and assorted rednecks believing the news. That shock has apparently awoken the above parties to the real possibility of losing the support of two brands most closely associated with going fast and turning left and instead relying on the support of newcomers like Toyota. While NASCAR claims it'd survive both financially and emotionally, we get the feeling that they're pouring a little cheap beer out for their homies at the not-so-Big Three. Humor's always best when it causes the target to get all introspective, thus proving they never really got the joke.

  • Schneier on Security: Election Fraud in Kentucky – I think this is the first documented case of election fraud in the U.S. using electronic voting machines (there have been lots of documented cases of errors and voting problems, but this one involves actual maliciousness[.]
  • Great photographs of the economic crisis. – - Slate Magazine – Last week, Slate launched "Shoot the Recession," a project in which we asked our readers what the economic crisis looks like to them. The response on the photo-sharing site Flickr, where we set up a group page to collect your contributions, has been bullish. As of this writing, our Flickr pool is home to more than 160 pictures.

What is the value of experience as a blogger?

I would never put my “experience” as a blogger on my resume, but shouldn’t you?  I still bring that experience to a current or future employer, so isn’t it worthy?

In the beginning, I had to have a rudimentary understanding of html, TCP/IP, and be at least competent in computer hardware and software maintenance, use, configuration, and troubleshooting.  Once the decision was made to have a website, I had to select among a variety of storage sites, create a page, and upload it via FTP.
