Greetings from Belle Vernon, PA. Last night I was so exhausted I didn't even try to log in from Vandalia, IL. Took it a little easier today, had a boring but smooth drive through Indiana and Ohio. Tomorrow I'll drive across Pennsylvania and Murphy-willing, arrive in NYC in early afternoon. Looks like I'll be in Boston Monday or Tuesday. 

Jake: "The News Aggregator feature for Manila allows server managers to offer a community aggregator for all of the sites on the server." 

NY Times: "Mitchell D. Kapor, a personal computer industry software pioneer and a civil liberties activist, has resigned from the board of Groove Networks after learning that the company's software was being used by the Pentagon as part of its development of a domestic surveillance system." 

Hey Chris Pirillo wrote an ode to me. Nice.  

Books-On-Tape is worth it. I "read" two trash novels while driving so far, two mysteries, one by Rex Stout and the other by Susan Isaacs. Both were silly, but compelling. And they took a satisfyingly long time. The Isaacs book took me all the way from western Colorado to the middle of Ohio (with NPR and music interspersed). 

The weather has been perfect. Just a couple of drops of rain in the Sierra and that's it. Record warmth in Kansas (it was in the high 70s the day I went through there).  

Ziff-Davis article on WiFi at McDonald's. 

Starbuck's isn't everywhere, but McDonald's is. If they went for WiFi access in every store, instead of just those in big cities, they'd have a new business model, and their coffee isn't that bad either. 

I'm starting to wade through 3000+ emails.
