The Unique BTC News
I don't know if you've noticed, but there seem to be a lot of blogs around these days. But BTC News is unique in their ingenuity and initiative: they somehow wrangled a press pass for White House briefings. It's something they don't get nearly enough credit for, and an embarrassment for everyone else that we haven't tried something similar.
Anyway, the designated BTC reporter Eric Brewer was at the White House today, and asked some worthwhile questions. Check it out, and if you can manage it, give BTC some bucks to keep the blurgh-powered questions coming.

Oh, oh, there goes Toyko
Go, go, Godzilla
Er...
I saw the video of this exchange in the white house press room. Didn't know it was a blogger. But the guy acted very unprofessional. Appealing to the other reporters by saying "Am I right?" Is he a Borscht Belt comic or a reporter?! Sheesh. Get your freaking facts straight.
