Amyloo: "Eventually the meaning of a name comes around to equate to the thing it names, and sheds any other initial associations, bad or good." Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Welcome to the club Russ, I've never been invited. Come to the OPML Roadshow in Berkeley on Saturday. It's open to everyone.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Re this Computerworld piece. First, I am not president of UserLand Software. That is a mistake. I haven't worked at UserLand for over three years. And I would like to retract and apologize for saying Microsoft and Google are being "childish." That wasn't fair and I shouldn't have said it. However there is new data in the story I wasn't aware of, and it makes Microsoft's rebranding even more inconsiderate and ill-advised, if the story is accurate, and that's a big if.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Blogger for Word: "Use Blogger right within Microsoft Word." Permanent link to this item in the archive.

A picture named claire.jpgThe last episode of Six Feet Under is coming next week, and you gotta wonder who dies. Yesterday it looked for a while like Claire had been killed, but not. Will there be spinoffs? How do you end a series like this without killing off the whole cast? I'm going to miss this show, really. But then they just announced this will not be the last season of The Sopranos, after all. Whew. It would have been too much to lose both in one year.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.
