I want my Moxi! And it looks like I might be able to get it…. eventually, and indirectly. Digeo (who bought Moxi) is planning to release it next year.

Angie Hart rocks
Journalists have been busily reporting that Aimee Mann and the Breeders are making appearances on Buffy this month, but the biggest news is the act that's sandwiched between the two.

GUIs gone wrong
I have a deep and abiding respect for a good, well-researched rant. And so today I bring you When Good Interfaces Go Crufty, an excellent discussion of the stupid decisions that went into the GUIs we know and love (?).

Liad; Leviticus and Dr. Laura
I know I haven't posted much lately. I plead book insanity -I've been reading the Liaden Universe series, and I'm moving on the short stories. Anyway, today I bring you Leviticus and Dr. Laura. Gotta love Leviticus. … [Read more...] about Liad; Leviticus and Dr. Laura
