Just made a grovelbot-free donation to DU |
|
Why? Last night I was recording TWO shows on DVR. during a commercial break in "The Killing", I checked DU and saw the alert that "something" was to be announced, at the very first alerts by others via TV.
So cancelled one program (Borgias) and switched over for the next 2-3 hours to get the hot news, along with following DU.
DU kept up with the storm of postings and gave info on the latest from all different sources.
It also included posts of the wonderful graphics of posters and bumper stickers and quirky asides of google map "recommends" as to the compound's attractiveness as a place to visit.
DU is the BEST.
Don't wait for the grovelbot -- do it now.

1. I was thinking of donating because that poor calf is making me cry several times a day. |
|
Your reasoning is better.

And, since you mentioned it, I am going to commend you on your TV choice. I have been watching The Killing, too, and it's really, really good. (Didn't watch last night, though. Will catch it on demand.)

3. I too found out about bin Laden from DU |
|
I have a ton of issues with some of the stupid flamewars and ideological bullshit that goes on here, but DU is still the best place on the net bar none for breaking news.
