Too many Christmas lights?


Too many Christmas lights? 12/10/2003 07:56 PM
Is there such a thing as too many Christmas lights? I love seeing lavish displays of lights at Christmas time. Some folks like a few old-fashioned Christmas lights and some like to deck the halls in a blaze of glory (this one boasts 700,000 lights). And how much does it cost to run a fabulous display?

Gateway to consolidate Midwestern facilities: With this, Gateway is leaving Sioux Falls completely. This is too bad, as Gateway is a child of South Dakota.

Gateway will close its Sioux Falls, S.D., facility this month, as part of its plan to return to profitability.

Here's a statistic for you: in the last four years, Gateway has reduced their workforce by 91%, from 24,000 workers worldwide in 2000 to just 2,000 workers after this latest round of layoffs.

Bryght lights 09/01/2004 12:02 PM

Roland Tanglao reports......

If you haven't already, go check out our new venture, Bryght.

What is Bryght? Bryght is all of the following:

1. "The Salesforce.com of community content"
2. Content Management System + Community Blogging System + Email + DNS + Domain Name Registration + much more (see our features page for more details)
3. A hosted website service for communities, corporations, organizations and individuals built using the open source Drupal system.

What is the relationship between Bryght and StreamLine? None, other than the fact that I work on both :-) !

Seriously, StreamLine continues to resell Blogware blogs to individuals and Bryght is focused solely on hosted Drupal sites (with domains, email and DNS as well).

Why Blogware blogs? Because Blogware is still the best individual hosted blog service out there.
Why Bryght? Because Bryght is the best hosted website service for communities.



Where Was FERC When the Lights Went Out?


Where Was FERC When the Lights Went Out? 08/06/2004 09:40 AM
  • SF Chronicle: Death Star' trader admits manipulating California market. The Enron Corp. energy trader who devised the notorious "Death Star'' scheme to bill California for fictitious electricity pleaded guilty in a San Francisco court to a federal fraud charge and admitted plotting to manipulate the market during the state's energy crisis.
  • Who else should be indicted? An e-mail correspondent this morning points to one of the worst offenders in this scandal: the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, where inaction in the face of utter sleaze is a way of life. Instead of helping California and the other states that got screwed by the bandits at Enron and other energy companies, FERC has consistently stiffed the victims, offering a tidbit here and there but essentially doing nothing serious. FERC keeps insisting that it's on the case. We'll need some actual evidence one of these days.
