A new Bryan Bell theme called Moveable Manila Blue. Bryan says: "CSS themes rock!"  Jon Udell: "Control your identity or Microsoft and Intel will." Reminder to Apple. News.Com is a rumor site. Andrew Orlowski: "Apple's wealthiest and most prominent celebrity cheerleaders have yet to break their silence on the company's culling of its grassroots publishers." Karl Martino found the first divorce directly related to 9-11. That article is a hoax, and a good one. I went to the movies today, it's so hot here in California. After the movie I was out tooling around and my brain kept generating this phrase over and over. "A carton of Marlboro Lights please." I had a Frappucino instead. I am an addict for life. The movie, Bourne Identity, came recommended by friends, but I wasn't crazy over it. The girl was very cute, and Matt is a good actor. Low suspension of disbelief. No commercials before the show. The air conditioning in the theater worked. NY Times: "By the end of July, all of the Fairmont's 38 properties, including the Plaza, the Fairmont San Francisco and the Fairmont Dubai, will offer wireless Internet access in public spaces, enabling guests to check their e-mail messages while having cocktails in the bar, for instance." Heads-up to developers wanting to sell software to people in the publishing world. In September we're doing a special show at Seybold to showcase web services, as they relate to people in publishing. So if you have a product or service that interfaces through SOAP or XML-RPC that's relevant to publishers, please let me know. We have a whole day to fill up with cool demos. Esp interested in stuff that builds on the built in support for web services in Mac OS X. Look in the right margin on Sheila Lennon's personal weblog. Hey, she subscribes to the philosophy of Dogma 2000. Dogmatic, fantastic, independent. Everyone's telling me that Fuck The Police is done by NWA, or Niggaz With Attitude. Maybe so, but my iPod insists (through Napster) that it was done by Public Enemy. There's a transcription error, perhaps, in there somewhere. Sue me. Marc Canter sheds some light. "Musical acts evolve - just like software companies. NWA was the original name of the group that did Fuck the Police. Guess what? Some of the founders then went on to create Public Enemy!" Postscript: I got at least two dozen emails saying Marc is wrong. OK, got the message. You all can move on now. On this day two years ago: "It's the music, dummy." |
