I got my first(?) Caltech Alumni spam today which led me to this page which led me to this page. The cool thing about LinkedIn Groups feature (finding this is an interesting case of buried UI) is that this stuff seems to be officially/unofficially sponsored by the groups hosted by LinkedIn. This means I get […]
I’m not too sure where this belongs, but a website mentions a custom bag manufacturer: Zugster bags. These are real custom, made-to-order messenger bags right down to the pockets, pads, and the stitching. Yes, it’s expensive and the wait is going to be like three months but flipping through these bags gives me a big […]
I promised Bess I’d mention that I’ll be at WebSIG’s “Wiki Technology and Trends” event taking photos and generally making an ass of myself. Admission is free with RSVP do it!

Someone is putting together a photographic height and weight chart. The UI is really bad, but the idea is stellar.
Björn Schotte just contacted me via Skype. Besides the obvious “Europeans are more hip to this Skype thing than us American’s” comment, it gave me an opportunity to find out what he’s been up to since I haven’t seen him for two years.
If any of you can watch any of these videos to the end, tell me about it. I’d file this under humor but, I have no idea if any these are funny. I watched the first 12 seconds of the first few and felt that was a pretty good exercise in willpower. Let’s just say […]
