Foursquare Monopoly Explained
Today Gizmodo carried a slightly confusing item about an "application" called "Foursquare Monopoly," taken from an interview earlier this month with Foursquare founder Dennis Crowley's brother, Jonathan. Here is a transcript of that part of the interview: "There's an application I'm planning right now called Foursquare Monopoly. And um because Foursquare's open and everyone can build applications on top of it, there's a guy in New York, his name's Christian Bovine, and he built an application in which–so you take 20 venues that you hang out with, 20 venues that you hang out at, and you take 10 of your friends to compete in this game, and everyone's given a certain amount of like fake cash, like $3000, so when you check into a venue, that's part of Foursquare Monopoly.

Why Are They So Mean To Her?
Sarah Palin has once again been victimized by the liberal mainstream media: "As you probably have heard, the AP snagged a copy of my memoir, Going Rogue, before its Tuesday release.

'Going Rogue': The Early Leaks
The AP got its hands on a copy of Sarah Palin's Going Rogue and offers a quick summary. Also, Matt Drudge has a brief excerpt. You will be shocked to learn that there were tensions with the McCain team during the campaign, that Sarah felt sorry for Katie Couric, and that Todd Palin is "quiet, gruff, strong, spiritual."
