I’ve been out of commission for a little while due to some Autumn Crud that is circulating here in beautiful Virginia. This bug was perfectly timed though, as I had just set up my first ever Netflix account. What could be better than feeling under the weather and having two DVDs of your choice delivered right to your door! Charlottesville now has a local distribution center for Netflix, so turnaround time is usually 1-2 days. It’s incredible really, I’m feeling pretty spoiled.

This cold and Netflix business also coincides with me doing a lot more research on this Long Tail theory that was originally written up in Wired last October. I gave a presentation to my company on Web 2.0 last Friday, and touched on the Long Tail using Netflix as an example. I’ll do a detailed write-up on that presentation in the coming days. Rather than Powerpoint or Keynote, I used a specially-made delicious account as the center piece for my talk. More on that soon!
