I'm trying an experiment with Scripting News. Now every item has a title, and I'm doing longer items, and leaving the linkblogging out. That doesn't mean I don't see pieces on other sites that I want to come back to (that's often why I link to something here), but I just haven't yet found a way to make that fit into the new regime.
So how about this -- a "today's links" section. Let's see how that plays.
To kick it off, an interesting idea from CalacanisLand.
Calacanis: "Someone should make the Starbucks of office space."
With little more Google juice I might just own Suze Orman. (However, I'm not sure what I'd do if I did.)
For ten points, guess who is the "senior administration official" in this press release from the Office of the Vice-President of the United States. Hint: He is one heartbeat from being president.

"RSS was born in 1997 out of the confluence of Dave Winer's 'Really Simple Syndication' technology, used to push out blog updates, and Netscape's 'Rich Site Summary', which allowed users to create custom Netscape home pages with regularly updated data flows." - Tim O'Reilly.
