An impeccable conduct and record in public relations  

1. This is from a couple weeks ago, but Ezra Klein has an interesting piece on that mythical creature, the undecided voter.

2. David Pogue reviews a new digital camera concept, a compact-sized camera with interchangeable lenses and an electronic viewfinder. I predict this type of camera will largely supplant DSLRs except at the high end; however, I'll wait for the next iteration (probably from Olympus) before buying one for myself.

3. Circulation is declining for newspapers, but that's no surprise. The real question is what their web stats look like, and whether local papers can make any money by going to an online audience.

4. Chirstopher Bangert has some The Big Picture and WSJ.com's Photo Journal. The former is probably better designed because it clusters photos on one topic, but today the Journal had a shot of the Kramnik-Anand match (go Anand!).

6. Here's an interview with one of the writers working on translating The Wire into German for overdubbing.
