No way to know if it’s legit or just a way to get my email address but I received an email offering a $1,000 for the smays.com domain. While there’s no shortage of people named Steve Mays out there, it’s hard to imagine any of them being willing to cough up a grand for smays.com. I wrote back saying this little corner of cyber space is not for sale. Given the hassle of moving, I don’t think I’d sell for $10K.

David Weinberger: “Americans face forward”
“The greatest country in history. We can do so much. We will do so much. This country was, after all, founded to move into the future, not to hold onto the habits and ideas of the past. For most countries, if you ask them what they are, what’s unique and defining about them, they’ll point to their past. Not us. Americans have always pointed to the future. If you want to understand us, look at what we’re going to do. Americans face forward.”
A speech that David Weinberger wrote but never gave.
