Dan Bricklin (of VisiCalc fame) just bought a TablePC and shares his thoughts on it. Here's Acer's version, and here's Toshiba's (which Dan actually bought).

I'm working on Sid tonight. I've nuked a few bugs, and I'm hoping (man, I'm hoping) to get a beta out soon.

Clark Venable started a new weblog for Mac OS X users at Penn State University. (Banner design by your truly -))

I was showing off some of my recent work to a friend, and he commented "It doesn't look like a [certain CMS] site at all!".

Over the last few days I've been working on a new design for the website for my father's company. I really like the design, and it's working well in each area that I implement it.

Apple has released WebObjects 5.2, with built-in support for web services and a number of other improvements.

I've just set out a beta for a new app to a few users. The app is called "TerminalBar", and it lets you enter a unix command string (any number of commands tacked together with semi-colons), an optional working directory to run them in, and whether or not to open a new Terminal window to run it in (otherwise it gets run in the background).

David McCusker:

I want to make sure my grasp of Objective C is fresh.

Scott Anguish, proprietor of the excellent Mac OS X and Cocoa resource site, StepWise, is available for Cocoa programming, WebObjects programming, and other consulting and writing.

If you use .Mac, and want to start a weblog, Lifli Software has a solution: iBlog! After iPhoto came out, I had this same basic idea: an i-themed weblog application. Glad to see someone built it!

Mmmm, I got a sneak peek today at Conversant's new Weblog Plugin. This is going to be seriously cool, and I can't wait until it's released! Seth has been banging out some serious code, and this new weblog plugin is going to rock.

Here's a hint of what I've been working on today. It's useful so far, much more so once I solve some UI issues.

At the request of a friend, I wrote a new app today. It's a utility app, and will be released as shareware when it's finished. It should be ready for beta tomorrow, and will be announced here.

I was looking for Senate election results, when washingtonpost.com asked me for the usual bothersome personal information. I took my usual tack of entering, shall I say, humorous, data. Looks like wp.com will have none of it. Well, darn.

Back in '93 or so, I was injured in a construction accident (12 penny nail to the knee) and had to have orthoscopic surgery. Before the surgery I was drugged up. I never thought about what happened after that until chatting with Clark Venable today. Clark is an anesthesiologist at Penn State, and I asked him if there had been an anesthesiologist present. He said yes, and pointed me to an instructional video (streaming QuickTime) describing the breathing tube they most likely used. Um, wow! They stuck that thing in me? Geez.
