Time for some Juggalo news
The other day we were talking about Edmonton’s new radio station, it’s umpteenth on your FM dial, and joked about Sally applying to the CRTC for all Juggalo-news radio.

Hey, if we get to 50 radio stations do we all win free iPods? Because there’s no Nickelback on those!
Anyway…we’re trying to add some firepower to our potential on-air lineup.
Next time, the CRTC won’t so easily dismiss the idea of the Juggalo-nation having its own broadcasting power.
Oh, and if you aren’t quite sure who, or what, a juggalo is, you can catch up thanks to the wonders of the Internet. I’m pretty sure juggalos invented the Internet.
Going Mobile
Well, the Internet isn't on phones for Zack and I.
This one doesn’t really have a lot to do with Edmonton, except that I’m in Edmonton and so are you and so is your phone.
If you’re not like old Zack Morris over there (and me…) you can probably point that fancy phone of yours to all points across the Internet and literally carry the world in your palm. I’m happy for you.
I’m so happy for you, in fact, that I’ve tweaked our website for your phone. If you head to theedmontonian.com you won’t be bogged down with giant Flash photos and other web junk anymore. No sir, you’ll be phone-surfing to our new mobile website (ooh…ahh) which is clean and simple because time can’t be wasted, in this fast-paced world, waiting for giant websites to load.
It also means you have even more opportunities to read my mundane rantings.
The Internet: it’s on phones now.
We called it!
(A tip of the hat to Stephen Colbert for the headline.)
Back in July (July, Edmonton!) we had a contributor put forward a plan that would revolutionize Fort Edmonton Park. It included rides, mazes, virtual realities, interactive pictures, videos and exhibits.
They all laughed.
Well, today the laughing stopped.
(The laughing at us and Janine I mean. You can feel free to laugh at the idea of a high-tech old timey park.)
If only we had predicted the log flume.
