Monday, Monday Media Minutiae (non-Katrina non-NYT-related edition)

Dream a little dream of these nuggets, gang:

Binn a long time, Binn a long time, Binn a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time: Over the past few months Jason Binn has been collecting talent and girding for his new glossy, Capitol File. He is not, however, being welcomed with open arms. Zeppelin and Journey? Only on Fishbowl, folks! [NYDN]

Newsweek and Technorati: 2-getha 4-eva Technorati hotshot Dave Sifry describes the blog-vation of the new Newsweek/Technorati feature on the Newsweek site, including not only the Most Blogged About articles but specific blog archives for Newsweek hotshots Michael Isikoff, Anna Quindlen, Stephen Levy and Mark Hosenball. We like this song for you guys. Spice up your life! [Technorati]

A freelancer's gotta have patience and pluck/When your copy is butchered and you can't make a buck to buy a soda S-O-D-A so he's hittin' the road-ah. You think you know what song this is, but you're wrong. [Slate]
