Thanks for that USA-only streaming video service. It’s a good thing the internet is only available insdie the USA, else foreigners might get peeved.

Nice tab order in your comment text boxes too, eh.

Brian, you’ll need to thank Hulu directly for that. I have no control over their video export policies.

I don’t mean to be a stick in the mud, but as a fellow blogger I feel you have a duty to your readers to ensure your content is available to them from wherever they might arrive. At least you now know for next time.

Please pardon my sour puss. I’m still peeved I couldn’t buy a reclusive musician’s music on Amazon.com’s USA-only MP3 store this week – the only store this guy sells from.

Yeah, blaming bloggers for your frustration is not going to help. Again, I would suggest that you contact these services directly as we do not have control export laws and policies.

Wow, what crawled in his bed this morning.

Thanks Scott, this is really great and hilarious. I had to look up quite a few of the “answers” in an attempt to figure out the punchline. I like the bizarro-futuristic gray hairdos – I think Jeopardy should implement that for reals.

I was really looking forward to attending your anniversary party at Lucky 13 but alas I’ll be out of the country to attend a wedding. I’ll raise a wine glass in Paris for the Squid!

To be clear, if a company doesn’t do business outside the USA then I’m not really interested in starting a big crusade to get them to change the way they do business. What I’m apparently failing to convey here is that it would be nice if the content provider (i.e., the contributors to the Laughing Squid blog) linked to content that was as freely accessible as the text introducing it. In my opinion, linking locale-specific content on a globally-accessible blog is like designing a website that only works on Internet Explorer.

Just sharing my personal experience with your website here. I don’t mean to point fingers or start a fuss.
