Very interesting, especially the bit about Embarq. Wicked smart.

(Audible sigh). I fear for Brigitte Dale. I’ve always enjoyed her whimsical vlogs, first on TV Squad and then her own website, but look what happened to Rocketboom sensation Amanda Congdon. She was co-opted by The Mouse and it was not a happy marriage. While no one can begrudge Brigitte her success in scoring an agent and a network contract, I have to admit my heart sank a little when I saw the ABC logo above her byline. Especially ABC’s logo. But if her new arrangement lands her a seat on The View next to Whoopie, or a role as a cool guidance counsellor in High School Musical 8, it will be worth it.
