What's next?Wednesday, November 05, 2008 by Dave Winer. Now the next question is -- what comes next? Probably some writing. But not yet. My to-do list is very long. I need to get my car serviced. Pay some bills and call some friends. After that, I don't know. Hey at least there's one thing that isn't on my list -- I get to stay in the USA. I wonder what our election looks like to people outside the U.S. Curious -- there was so much angst, now that Obama is our President-elect, what changed -- what comes next for you? |
