Steve Garfield (from SteveGarfield.com) sent me this video last night. This is the funniest spoof of me ever, by far! Love it!! I hope she gets the job.
Well, It's great to see Steve G. on the right side of the issue. Today I wrote Rocketboom that their (Andrew's) posting was way out of line with what I understood was Amanda's role on the show and her future and that "thousands and thousands" of us will want her and Andrew to work out a compromise rather than see a new face. I don't think there is any doubt about this. Stay close to us, Amanda. (thanks, Steve G.)
As a former faithful viewer of rocketboom, that cracked me up. Oh, I'm sure you've noticed, but you're now the frontpage of the tech section on cnn.com.
I don't recall ever seeing rocketboom before this weekend past, but, I decided to watch as many as I could. I think I may have seen most of them. It was wonderful to see you grow into rocketboom. I wish you well and hope you come back again. I'll watch and listen.
That was sooo funny. I only really got into rocketboom about a week and half before you left, Amanda, and was really getting into it when the disagreement between you and Andrew happened. Since then I've been following it as closely as I could, and have been apprehensive about a replacement filling your shoes, as I would say, and most people here would agree: You ARE RocketBoom.
With that said, though, I am finding it slightly disturbing watching the new RocketBoom, with Joanne Colan. I have to say that I actually feel kind of dirty, because I feel like I'm betraying you, but I watch it because if I didn't, I would somehow be disloyal to the British, seeing as both Joanne, and I, are British.
On that note, I hope you all the best for the future, I hope that you ride the wave that has been the sudden loss of you from RocketBoom, because as they say: When one door closes, another one opens.
Prove to us the power of this proverb, Amanda. We believe in you. :) Shafiq.

That map looks like it takes longer to make than to go down to the drug store and buy.
