Three Days to Dead It was one of those strange things: I saw this ad for Kelly Meding’s Three Days to Dead and I swear my spidey-sense started tingling. I just knew that this book was going to be great and that she was going to be an author who was really going to go places. Then [...] There is a great article on Techdirt.com by Mike Masnick which talks about how the remakes of Alice in Wonderland illustrate the good that can come out of material being in the public domain.

So, Hope, thank you very much! And even though I can’t [...] Techflash’s Eric Engleman just noted on his Amazon Blog that Apple is begining to push back against Amazon’s MP3 Daily Deals. It seems that iTunes is trying to pressure labels to stay away. I would hate to see Amazon lose this battle. The Daily MP3 Deals of the Day are generally great values and I myself [...] I love a good burger and frequently add various seasonings when cooking them that give a unique and individual taste.
