If you know the LAMP stack and want to live in Boston, the Obama campaign wants to hire you:

They need a programmer and a security expert.

That Obama ... in addition to being so gosh-darned dreamy, he embraces Linux and other free, open-source technologies.

How's John McCain gonna compete with that?

Excerpts from the two guides above:

We have to know: what's your favorite gadget?

Obama: BlackBerry.
McCain: My slim, stylish gold Razr phone and I are inseparable.

And for the equal time's sake, here's a picture of John McCain back in the day:

About this blog

New ways to sign in to comment: I just added the ability for prospective commenters on this blog to sign in using their AOL, Yahoo! and Wordpress.com accounts (for the past 200 posts anyway ... more than that will take an extensive, middle-of-the-night rebuild). That's in addition to the other sign-in choices, which include starting a Movable Type account on this blog, Typekey, OpenID, Live Journal and Vox. If you have trouble getting your Movable Type account verified, or any of the other sign-in options are not working properly, please e-mail me. With these added ways of signing in, there's more reason than ever for you to make a comment (or several!).




Steven Rosenberg aims to learn what he does not know. He writes about it here.
