  Steven Colbert gets Guy Fawkesed?
At about 10:41 into the tape a face briefly appears over Colbert's.

Here's hoping it stays that way. We always look at any kind of social network as being highly susceptible to manipulation by the less than altruistic.

  Google plows under content farms
Not exactly but a 12% reduction in results was reported. Admittedly there is often some mighty slimy SEO out there but we've always thought the social recommendation system was easily gamed. This can easily be seen as an effort by Google to improve their search results and set themselves apart from the social networks.

  SPJ says call to Gov. Walker unethical
But this Poynter article on the same day says the Breitbart/O'Keefe videos have their roots in the journalism they seek to challenge.

Okay, ambush a governor is bad; heavily edit your video from multiple instances is good.

Now we understand.

  Gaddafi ready to fall
Some eight to nine years after the neocons claimed responsibility for turning him around, it finally happens.

Update(2-23-11): This appears to not be the case as he and others around him are talking about fighting till their "last drop of blood".

Update(3-14-11): He is now beating back the rebels. Given his longevity and heavy handed rule, we concede it was rash to expect anything less.

  "Team Themis" Anonymously spanked
Initially we were doubtful of this story with all the citations of Think Progress but it appears that HBGary was playing a rough game.

  via PCMAG: Current leaders in tablet field
All four look pretty good but RIM's choice to not cannibalize their existing line makes for a serious drawback: According to this article, 3G (4G is what earlier articles had spec'd the tablet at) service for their tablet will require in tandem operation with one of their phones. Pricing information for the RIM Playbook is still unavailable but this is sounding pricey already.

  WebOS coming to a PC near you
Lotsa questions, a little early to say what it will mean. Meanwhile, trying to get Android to run on the PC hasn't been working for us.

  'The Daily' has a dilly of a problem
It crashes or loads slowly and other sources report difficulty finding updated content.

We have been in somewhat of the minority in being bullish on Murdoch's plans for this. It strikes us that enough prestige is riding on this venture that if there is a way to solve these problems it will be found.

There is simply no way around this: News for mobile devices is the future of journalism.

  The rest is yet to come for HuffPo and AOL:
Definitely not the best.

The novelty of HuffPo wore off long ago and mediocrity will surely follow The Way of The AOL .

  via Politico: Palin forgets
"Palin also spoke about a possible 2012 presidential campaign, saying if she does make a White House bid, she'll continue 'having that thick skin and steel spine'."

We assume it was that same steely nerve that caused her to quit as governor of Alaska.
