Comcast Voices

Just catching up with Comcast's recently launched corporate blog, Comcast Voices.
It is headed up by Chief Blogger Scott McNulty, formerly of The Unofficial Apple Weblog and well known to many in the Philly Tech scene. Scott is very good and I'm sure will do well with this, though its a little harder working on the company side in some ways. One of his first jobs was to explain Comcast's major email outage this past weekend.

Philly.com joins Yahoo! online consortium (Philadelphia Inquirer)
Interesting that Philly.com is still using Monster.com for its job listings, even though my understanding is that Yahoo's HotJobs has been the most productive aspect of the Yahoo Consortium for newspapers.
Also, though the Inquirer article says that Philly.com joined the Yahoo Consortium a year ago, it was actually closer to two
years ago.
