Seen in downtown Santa Fe, signs encouraging citizens to Vote Blog. He's a candidate for county commissioner, and yes, he does have a blog. Let's hope his supporters can cast verifiable votes.

There are other reasons the Santa Fe area is cool, like the free wifi available in the ABQ airport -- that's free as in speech and as in beer, no charge and no nasty terms-of-service. I was happy to arrive early for my flight.

New Mexico is also home to the very cool Alliance for Innovation in Science and Technology Information, who invited me to speak to their meeting of scientific researchers and librarians.
