Clearing the tabs at the end of the day:

  • Newsfeeds.com is for those who download lots of Usenet stuff.  I get a Giganews account with my Comcast account, but sometimes you need to leech (er download) more than a gig each month.
  • What kind of snake is that?
  • Ian Bicking dislikes the unittest module.
  • Gizmodo notes new GPS-enabled phones from Moto for Nextel.
  • BBC: the knife find is kinda scary.
  • What do you mean Klingon is not unicode?
  • Keith Ray: how to go faster.
  • Must subscribe to Steve Olechowski’s blog.
  • Shawn Honnick grew up in Kensington.  Must subscribe to his feed too.
  • According to Rob Flickenger (blue hair) iTunes uses _daap._tcp. to announce itself in Rendezvous-speak.
  • The Feature: “American Teens: Stupid or Spoiled?”
  • I did a good bit of moblogging today.
  • iTunes takes up a good bit of resources.  I’m not complaining, and I don’t really notice it on my laptop.  iTunes works fine on my laptop, but it refuses to allow me to add MP3 files or play from the CD-ROM on a desktop machine that I have it installed on.  It’s pretty much unusable on that machine.
  • Jim says Zinf works well and is lightweight.
