Matthew Yglesias is a fellow at the Center for American Progress. His first book, with the working title Heads in the Sand: Iraq and the Strange Death of Liberal Internationalism, scheduled to be published next spring by John Wiley and co., deals with the Democratic Party's struggle to find a post-9/11 foreign policy, focusing primarily on the rise and (hopefully) fall of the liberal hawk movement.

Previously, he was a staff writer at The American Prospect and an Associate Editor at TPM Media, where he contributed to the group blogs Tapped and TPMCafe. His main blog, now at The Atlantic, has existed in various forms since the dark ages of the blogosphere in January 2002.

His writing has appeared in The Guardian, Slate, The New Republic, and The Washington Monthly, and he is a regular on BloggingHeads.tv and makes the occasional radio or television appearance.

Desperately out of touch with the American mainstream, Yglesias was born and raised in Manhattan and studied philosophy at Harvard where he was editor in chief of The Harvard Independent, a campus alternative weekly.

His latest writings can be found on the Matthew Yglesias blog.

Sardines: Tastier Than You Think

By Matthew Yglesias

Jul 20 2007, 3:19 PM ET Comment

To pimp the company's product for a bit, not only did I like Corby Kummer's online video about knives from last month, but I like this month's edition -- about grilled sardines and other oily fish -- even more. I like the gross canned sardines, too, but, obviously, this is a superior fish when cooked properly.

There's been a lot of hype about YouTube over the past twelve months, but I think the real digital revolution is likely to be things a little bit more like this: Medium-sized organizations capable of mustering a bit more quality in terms of production values moving in on the terrain of television.
