Migraine Awareness Group: a National Understanding for Migraineurs (MAGNUM). Good informative site for migraine sufferers ("migraineurs").

Jodi gets 3 or 4 multi-day migraines each month, and we're looking for treatments more effective and less expensive than Maxalt.

Thomas Wilson has started a new weblog related to information technology and theory. The Information Research Weblog is affilliated with the Information Research journal, and covers information theory, the semantic web, trends in IT, and other related topics. In Tom's words:

I'm working on a couple new Conversant sites for a client these days. In the process, I'm learning more about some of Conversant's features that I've not used much, and appreciating again how cool Conversant is. Here are some of the interesting things I'm doing:

Sorry folks, I've been a bit under the weather lately. Gonna blog some more in a bit.

My good friend Jim recently released a Mac OS X installer for Plone, a Zope-based CMS.

The More Stuff 4 Less Blog is blogging super cheap stuff and great rebate deals in various online stores. This is the way I want to shop. Everywhere. Well, almost everywhere. -)

Hm. SBC is claiming they have a valid patent on website navigation and is starting to extort license fees from "infringing" sites.

David Weinberger has put together a really good FAQ about the Open Spectrum movement. It's well done, and gives a glimpse of what spectrum de-regulation might do for us.

Jodi, Angie, some other friends and I all went out last night to see My Big Fat Greek Wedding. It's the funniest movie I've seen in ages. I was giggling through the whole movie, and quite a few times burst out laughing. It was awesome.

I've found myself with a growing interest lately in a category of applications loosely known as "Social Software". O'Reilly's Emerging Tech conference has a track on it, and I'm still trying to cobble together a definition thereof for my own use. (For further reading, Clay Shirky has a bunch of writings on related topics too).

As a graphic designer at heart, I have always held dear to me the tools I use to express myself visually. For many years now I have been a die-hard Macromedia disciple. Freehand (Aldus Freehand, mind you) was my first vector design tool, and I would take it over Illustrator any day. I still think it has the simpler paradigms and is easier to use. Dreamweaver has been my GUI html-editor of choice for ages, and Fireworks was hands-down the coolest thing I had ever seen. I lived in Fireworks for a couple years.

Ok, I'm interested in this and don't have the time to work on it, so I'm going to try invoking the mystical power of the LazyWeb to get it done:

OOoooooohh, I want one of these. Rebate only good with purchase of a service plan (T-Mobile). (Color screen, Bluetooth-enabled). Rebate good until Jan. 27.

Morbus blogs a comment I made in irc about this.

Whew. I went all-out yesterday on the ol' blog. 'Course, that means that absolutely nothing will seem blog-worthy today. Sigh.

This weblog will be wearing a black band for the next while to mourn the death of the public domain in America. That source of so much great art, writing, and ideas is going to wither and die in the face of coporate copyright.
