1. MT Open Source 4.1 is now available. I still have no idea whether to stick with the free MT or the free MTOS. Need to ponder this some time I have some spare cycles.
2. Old valentines.
3. The TSA has confirmed that some locations were asking for people to pull all their cables out of their bags, and that this was not official policy -- and that it won't happen again.
4. Keeping your home Wi-Fi strong and clear.
5. We played some more Galactic last weekend, which was great fun. Whether it's playing Latin romantic pilot Tomas, dreadfully earnest and presently mind-controlled Brad, shrewish and clever Sonja, or even my own Captain Alyssande, it's always a hoot. Never any wandering attention at that table.
6. Online tools to help you prepare for death, including obit/tribute sites, "last e-mail message" sites, wills, perpetual site licenses, etc.
7. While I am deeply suspicious of any pricing scheme that the music labels come up with, the idea behind Total Music sounds good (it's a parallel to the movie industry getting a slice of VCR sales): an incremental charge for music playing devices, in return for a lot less DRM. We'll see where the catch is.
8. I enjoy the new Backward Compatible webcomic by Aaron Williams (Nodwick, FFN, PS238), but what does the man have against RSS feeds? If I can't get it in my reader (or at least a reminder that a new one is up), the chances I'll remember to go back and read it drop close to nil.
9. Guillermo Del Toro will be directing The Hobbit under Peter Jackson's executive producership.
