This site WAS going to be an online portfolio or resume, but now it is mostly a virtual display case for a few things I want to remember. However, if you get curious you can view my resume by clicking on the link to the left. One more thing - check out my vintage shop on Etsy if you like! It's always a delightful work in progress. :)

Semana: “Chávez lashes out against Twitter”

guillee:

After an unprecedented virtual protest on Twitter, in which thousands of messages asked for his resignation and demanded a Venezuela with freedom of speech and of the press, the president of Venezuela, Hugo Chávez, asked the National Assembly deputies to prepare a law for the control of the Internet.

Twitter could be declared an “instrument of terrorism” because the deputies, in reply to the presidential request, declared that they would intervene “for the well-being of the people”, by eliminating the terrorist threats posed by social networks.

Goodbye, Internet. (Via Boing Boing.)

    I want so badly to like Chavez, but he just keeps expanding power and limiting human rights.
