[Embedded YouTube video of David Lee King's "Are You Blogging This," wherein David sings an uptempo little number about web 2.0-ish stuff. Funny, geeky, catchy.] Yes! I am blogging this! Now stop yelling at me! (David Lee King celebrates two years of blogging. Looks like he filmed this at work: way to go!) Tags: david_lee_king, [...]
