This afternoon I saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for the second time. It's a good movie to see twice because the first time you don't really get the order in which things are happening. It's a sweet movie because the characters get a second chance at love. And as they relive their memories of love, so does the viewer.  Tech question: How to encode BitTorrent in podcast feeds?  At the dinner in Vancouver I was one of only two or three Americans, the rest were Canadians. Of course they wanted to talk about the political situation in the US. What's to become of the Democratic party? This is much-discussed in the US too. Why worry? The diversity in the country won't go away just because the Democrats can't nominate a winner. Even within the Republican Party there's choice. Democrats could vote for Schwarzenegger or Giuliani (who is a citizen). Are either of these really any less repulsive than Kerry? Think about it. I'm now where I was before Kerry was the Democratic nominee. I think we do it backwards in the US. First we should decide what our issues are, then we should go shopping for representatives to represent us. See the connection? Represent. We end up voting for minor, almost irrelevant differences, and as a result, no representation, and our country can't make positive change. I don't believe the red-staters are bad or stupid. I think they're stuck in the same mess the rest of us are.   On November 8, as a service to people participating in BloggerCon, I asked vendors to post pointers to services that would be of interest to bloggers. 10 vendors have responded so far. It's still an open thread, so if you want to get your message in front of bloggers, post a comment there. We'll do this again at the next BC. There's no cost to participate.   Little-known fact in the RSS world, Microsoft's hit game, Halo 2, supports RSS. Here's a review by a user.
