I’m Matt Stansberry, a Eugene, Oregon-based technology journalist with a serious fly fishing problem. Upstream in Oregon is my personal blog — thoughts on hunting, fishing, environmental issues, photography and books.
I also operate several other blogs, including:

My YouTube page is here, and my Flickr page is here.

Great work Matt. The switch feels nice, yes? TMF
Hey Matt: It’s a Friday night and I’m on Facebook (what a loser I am, heh?) and saw your new blog site and clicked. Glad I did. Your coverage of the data center always thrills me of course but, this stuff is a great read and your pictures are fabulous. I think Rick would really be interested in the fly fishing commentary. I’m anxious to hear how the rest of the trip goes and look forward to seeing you soon.

Howdy there, frequent reader here. I wanted to point you to a quick post I put up about Whitefish on the Crooked River. I am tired enough I couldn’t find an email link for you on the site so I am posting it here. I think you will agree with my thinking in the post:

Nice site! I enjoy reading your thoughtful posts about fishing and your insightful commentary about society in general. I also thought that your recent trip to remove barbed wire was a great thing to do. Also, congratulations on your engagement! Check out my site if you get a chance, http://web.mac.com/sierratrout

Hi Matt,
I work with Travel Oregon, the state’s tourism commission, and as a fellow resident of Oregon, we need your help.
Travel Oregon has recently launched http://www.GoSeeOregon.com, a new social networking platform that blends elements of TripAdvisor with CitySearch. This site allows visitors to read hotel and restaurant reviews, scope out attractions, and plan their trip from start to finish.
Here’s where you come in. We scoured the Oregon blogosphere for experts in a variety of industries, and we’d love your help adding places and reviews (“tips”) about fishing and hunting to GoSeeOregon. In return for adding at least 2 new places, we’ll link to your site from a new Resources page we’re developing. Travel Oregon is consistently promoting GoSeeOregon to media and consumers alike, so we are hopeful the site’s visibility and traffic will boost your own.
Interested? Just create a minimum of 2 new places in GoSeeOregon, then send me the links to those places and your Web site and log-in name and we’ll post your site on our resources page. Thanks, and let me know if you have questions!

Hey Matt, I love the blog. I’m moving to Oregon in the summer and am looking forward to doing a little fishing once I get there. At present I live beside Lough Melvin in Ireland, check it out for some exclusive fishing. Keep up the good work! Ronan
