Re: Another Postgresql mention in the media

It's part of my process, but I also filter the links in the news in
cases where the same article is carried in multiple news outlets; the
sco service pack is a good example of that. Not to mention sometimes
google news gives you duplicate articles and/or outdated articles, or it
might have an article about something completely obtuse but it has the
word postgres in it *somewhere*, so I try to filter it down to articles
that I think might be worth reading to the general public.
