When I was down in New Orleans a few weeks back I got to see a Kindle in action and have to say that I was blown away by the device, I just can’t wait to see the new one. Speaking of which, TechCrunch has a nice article on Kindle piracy this morning. 

How rich are we? “The number of households with a discretionary income over $500,000 went from approximately 118,000 to 92,000 — the first drop since 1997.” great piece called How the Wealthy are Spending Their Money This Year that takes a look at how us superrich (cough) cats are spending our money in tough times. Apparently the rich are becoming less rich, poor little darlings. Speaking of the economy, I love following the clusterfuck we call the auto industry and this morning is no different, Brian has a great piece on it.

What else am I reading? The usual … Google controls 73% of the search market these days, Sears and Kmart are getting a lot better at social media marketing and Darren at ProBlogger put together a sweet piece on having a blogging Business Model.

Little know fact … I’m so far east of New York that I’m actually in a different time zone, so now that I’ve spent most of my morning reading I think it’s late enough in the EST to call mom without seeming cruel. Happy Mothers Day everybody. Chris
