Take a walk on the campus of the University of Washington.  Twenty years later, ThinkTank still gets fan mail.  A mostly negative story by the NY Times' Bob Tedeschi about Philadelphia's courageous plan to cover the city with wireless Internet access. I'm glad that Philadelphia is doing this, even if it isn't universally used. I want to Internet access to become ubiquitous and free as soon as possible. A few years ago Tedeschi was saying blogs wouldn't amount to anything.   Talked with Scoble today, he told me about DotNetRocks which is an audio blogcast he loves. Got to check it out.  One year ago today: "As long as the music industry labels all use of music on the Internet as piracy, and as long as pubs like the NY Times go along with this, the 'problem' will never be solved."  On this day in 1998, Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire hit their 66th home runs, in doing so setting the all-time record for the most home runs in a season. McGwire would finish the year with 70, only to be topped by Barry Bonds three years later, with 73. Roger Maris still holds the American League record with 61, supporting the widely-held belief that the AL is not a "real" baseball league.  Electoral Vote Predictor: Kerry 207, Bush 311. 
Talking with Adam this morning, not in Trade Secrets mode, I said that I buy servers the way women buy shoes. I thought that was worth getting on the record not because I understand myself better, but rather because I think I understand women's relationship with shoes better. Elizabeth Edwards on blogging.  I hate to interfere in British politics, but it seems if they drive Tony Blair from office, we'll be more likely to send Dubya back to Texas.   This Netflix feed updates once a week early on Sunday morning with the list of new movies.  Barry Bowen has started an OPML-based directory site.
