I knew the news had been widely disseminated -- I'd seen it on multiple blogs, and did a Google News search last night to pick a version of the story to link to (and had no shortage of candidates.) Like all my 5 AM posts, it was scheduled last night for publication this morning.
The latter link had been in my queue for a little while, and hasn't been so widespread.
I like posting about things that aren't the same thing everyone else is talking about, but I don't necessarily mind talking about the same things.
