The U.S. military develops its own Youtube channel
And it’s smart of them to do so. Considering how slanted media coverage of the war is, at least they’re putting some more truth out there. CNN whined that it was “one-sidedly upbeat.” Well, I saw some things on there that didn’t seem so upbeat to me. But to a channel like CNN any good news mixed with the bad would be one-sidely upbeat. CNN seemed to religiously follow the adage that “no news is good news.” But, whatever.
It’s time for the U.S. military to join the Web 2.0. A Youtube channel is great, but they have to rescind this new OPSEC regulation on milblogs. New OPSEC = FUBAR + SNAFU + WTF.

Margaret Mead and women to admire
The blog My Several Worlds published a post on Women that Little Girls Should Admire. I have been compiling such a list myself, though not published on this blog. I was very enthused to see another blogger write about such a thing! And quite happy to find another woman to admire.
Margaret Mead taught the value of looking openly and carefully at other cultures to understand the complexities of being human. I think she is a true inspiration and role-model for women of all ages.
“This is why I am using Margaret Mead as my opener for a new section of posts titled, “Women Little Girls Should Admire,” in My Several Worlds. I hope there is no need for an explanation.”
Go read the whole thing.
Myspace snaps up Photobucket
Makes sense considering how many Myspacers, including myself, use Photobucket.
