Two bits of feedback: 1) I would turn down the soundtrack when the crowd starts clapping and chanting. I would rather hear the crowd than the (in my opinion cheesy) music. 2) Please oh please oh please spell "Barack" correctly! In the video and in this blog post. PLEASE! Hi Leonard!

You know the reasons I have deadlines and have never missed one? 1. Immediacy. One the advantages of my publishing medium is I am the sole editor. As soon as I have a story, I hustle my butt to the nearest WiFi and file. Which leads to... 2. Pride. This immediacy means I can file a story with equal quality faster than a traditional media reporter every single time. Len, you didn't miss that deadline because the consequences of failure was an effect on your employment. You missed it because you chose different priorities. To each his own. But let's not pretend that people won't meet deadlines if they aren't paid. People do it every day. Leonard.

Maybe you should join Newsvine and earn 90% of the ad revenue on your column there, I'm sure the $4/mo. or so could buy you a spellchecker or something. ;) “free unpaided labor”???
