In exchange, I’ll spend more time reading the copy at Zune.net -not an easy feat.

In other news, Yahoo! Food is now open and it’s really tasty. If you enjoy cooking this should prove to be? a? valuable 2.0 resource.? 

and in the best news of the day, CNET.com is reporting that, “The head of the Federal Trade Commission on Monday voiced reluctance toward adopting consumer protection laws that target technological concerns du jour, saying the “collective voice” of consumers often prompts change. ” She went on to say, “On the Internet, consumers appear to reign supreme, and they can be very powerful and tough customers.” Sounds good to me.

From Aloha Workshops on the Big Island of Hawaii, this is Brent Norris for the World Organization of Webmasters and the WOW Technology Minute.
