Woohoo! First post from my MacBook Pro!
Harry Browne just died. That sucks.
Erik J. Barzeski on the new Mac Mini and the iPod Hifi: “I don’t think either of these devices fits my iLife”. Me neither, my MBP does everything I need. “;->”
Adam Curry responds to Paul’s post. Personally, I don’t mind advertising in podcasts. But EarthLink irks me because (a) it’s not international (meaning that anybody outside of the USA hears the adverts but it’s pointless since I couldn’t sign up for EarthLink even if I wanted to) and (b) the repetition and prominence (imagine if it was “Welcome to Delta Sierra Charlie #345 sponsored by EarthLink.net, your internet experts”). Make it shorter, make it far less often and swap in some different sponsors.
Very neat little trick. It’ll be especially useful when I have to give a presentation (and how I don’t look forward to that day).
I’m going to consciously subscribe to, and link to, more women bloggers. (Yes, I know that linking to Scoble isn’t the best start on that…)
I just noticed that CoComment has got rid of their invitation requirement. Now, if only a few of these poseurish Web 2.0 companies could get rid of their invite bullshit, I might start linking to them.
DIY Abortions-a-go-go. God forbid that anyone’ll need it. Keep those condoms on, folks. Or do it in the ass, ladies.
Kent Newsome weighs in on that old discussion on journals and blogs.
FeedBlendr is a neat tool. It blends feeds, don’t you know. And it supports OPML.
Peter, it’s not worms I want. It’s Worms. You know. Worms killing each other with all sorts of cool weapons.
Crooked Timber are talking about Linda Smith.
NCSE have highlights from an interview with a hero: Judge John E. Jones III - the Bush appointee who saved Pennsylvania from the ill-thought-out ravings of Intelligent Design dimwits.
Book em, Secular Leicesterians!
Wowza. My friends up at the Leicester Secular Society counterprotested at Jerry Springer: The Opera. So sayeth my friend, Mr Baker: “With all the fuss in the papers, we thought it was about time we came along and gave our support for the show. Freedom of speech is more under threat than it has been in 30 years with opposition to this kind of thing. This show has every right to go ahead. If people don’t like it, they don’t have to go and watch it.”
Bloggers have been pointing to the badass nature of the Leicester secularists. Yes, they rule. (Via MediaWatchWatch)
