I’ve been consolidating my many web presences that have developed over the years. In particular I want to raise the visibility of my current professional identity, as it appears on Google Plus and at my professional site (Applied Information Design LLC.)

If you infrequently chase Steelhead with a two handed (Spey) rod then you may not totally understand all the talk about Skagit’s, Scandi’s, Shoot Heads, T this & that.

Chris CarlsonCarlson Chronicles Governor C.L. “Butch” Otter says he will seek a third term. Good! With the way he is “mailing it in” that may provide Democrats with the first real opportunity to occupy the executive chair since then Attorney General Larry Echohawk lost to Phil Batt in 1994.

The good folks at Portland's own Cravedog have designed a t-shirt especially for Blazersedge. We haven't had a shirt in a while and it was cool to have it done by a group of experts! You can see the design right after the jump. EXCEPT...the shirt isn't finished yet.
Call us crazy, but we have a theory: Willamette Week really, really doesn't want Eileen Brady to be the next mayor of Portland. We're not sure why that is, but whatever the motive, the Wednesday wonders are pounding on Brady relentlessly, pausing only for the latest
