Let it drone
Are you getting a drone for Christmas? The FAA wants you to "fly for fun!" Are you a journalist getting a drone for Christmas? PUT THAT DOWN, YOU!
Also, fixed it for you:
Are you a Kingston resident who received a scary sounding robocall from the mayor of the city on Friday? If you didn't jump off your window screaming, you might want to know it was about this.
If I get around to it, I'll autotune it. We've been there before.
HAHAHA not funny.
Jay Rosen, who was (is?) an adviser for the Freeman's parent company, says if you're a journalist and you don't understand your biz, you should quit. Nick Denton says Jay Rosen is cray. Nick Denton runs Gawker, kind of. This is why I need a drone with lasers.
By which I mean, so you can fly above and escape the maddening plumes of opiate smoke that turn journalists into giggling maniacs:
UPDATE: Thankfully, journo twitter dad Steve Buttry has a thoughtful post about this (the Rosen-Denton thing, not the stoned journo) so now I look bad for being silly. THANKS, OBAMA!
One Internet cat: Catbot 3000 is a Twitter bot that combines headlines with cats. It was baked with love by Patrick Hogan after an errant tweet by a crazy Peruvian life editor who lives in Kingston and whose names escapes me.
One Google Glass picture: Downtown Kingston.
Yesterday's Internet, Today! is a quasi-feature in which I throw in a bunch of links I tweeted, faved or saw the day before or in the morning.

The Kardashian gang took a trip down memory lane last night and ended up on Chase No Face

Bad Santa, Good Santas
Not much happened online lately, but only if you're me and don't internet on the weekends much.
Here are some random links anyway.
My Twitter dad Steve Buttry is a classy guy and very brave.
The Knight Foundation is my spirit animal.
This Santa is so horrible I can't even.
But these Santas are awesome so there's hope.
Remember kids, Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of the speech, etc., therefore you can't park here.
Today's Journalism predictions: Written by robot.
Today's Twitter Cat (I can't believe I forgot to add a cat on Friday):
