1115.org weighs in with their analysis of last night's State of the State, and Capitol Notes' John Meyer takes folks behind the scenes. SF CityScape has high hopes for The City's promotion of interim Planning Director Dean Macris to a permanent post. And San Jose decides they want a city wifi network, too.
Many Friends of SFist are down in Las Vegas this week, some at CES, some at AVN, most probably going both ways. Om Malik points out that TomKat dropped by the Yahoo! tent -- wonder how much Yahoo donated to the Celebrity Centre to pull that one off. Speaking of celebrities, the Google versus Microsoft battle may have just gotten personal -- Al Gore is tight with Google, but his old buddy Bill Clinton has been spotted at the Microsoft campus. The CIA's former head of venture capital investments has moved to Silicon Valley, while Sonia Arrison points out a CNet article which reveals that federal agency websites are watching you.
One of our favorite new blog finds (thanks, Courtney!), SparkleTack, muses on suicide, the Golden Gate bridge and the history of San Francisco. Phil Kaplan, AKA Pud, AKA Beef Savage is now also AKA The Metalizer -- he takes the pop songs you love and turns them into headbangers. And Jon Swenson shares the press release announcing the 24 finalists for Mavericks.
