Open Source Application Foundation

Wow, I'm impressed. Mitch Kapor and his team have come up with a great idea - an open source PIM and groupware suite and the non-profit foundation to make it happen. Kudos!

Galeon 1.2

Vurry Nice. Just upgraded to it from the Mozilla 1.0.1-based renderer, and it is noticably faster and has less bugs - for example, the New York Times site loads up without any hitches - previous Gecko engines would often get stuck on that site.

Those Sickos at MF

Nothing like a breath of fresh air from the folks at Metafilter. Even though I have a small child running around, I can't help but indulge in guilty pleasure when looking at these kid drawings critiques

West Wing Nitpicks

Jeez, this is just going too far. I'd expect to see this on some E! Entertainment magazine or the like, but in "government's business news daily and the premier Web site for federal managers and executives"? Sheesh, poke your readers to get back to work, they're wasting our money reading this trash!

Fans

Weird. When I go over my referrer logs, I often see myself in other people's blogroll; which is flattering, and a little uncomfortable. When I think a little more deeply, I wonder why I feel that way - after all, isn't that one of the reasons why I blog in the first place?

Ah, feeling self-conscious now. These aren't original thoughts, I know; just mine, right now, at this moment.
