You wouldn't like me when I'm angry...

Mmmm, yeesss. New Hulk trailer online at Apple.


The Speed of What?

We all thought the Space Shuttle was fast, but we had no idea.


Moleskine notebooks

I'd never heard of Moleskine notebooks, but they seem to have quite the reputation. I've long used hardbound unlined notebooks as sketchbooks and journals. Now I find that these really cool bound notebooks can be purchased online.


My First iMovie movie

I got iMovie 3 when it came out, and spent a few hours hacking together this short video to R.E.M.'s Low Desert.


Tufte on patient status

Graphical summary of patient status (1994): Very cool article from the Lancet (medical journal) reproduced on Tufte's site, in which Tufte and a collaborator define a simple graphical representation of patient status information. Brilliant. Tufte packs more information and meaning into a two-dimensionsal space than anyone I've seen.


"What I need..."

So I'm at lunch with my buddy J.P., and we're discussing VCRs, DVDs, and PVRs, and he says to me "What I need is someone who can tell me how to use all my electronic gadgets to make my life better."


Tufte on my mind

Thanks to two loal Libraries, I am now in possession of three of Edward Tufte's masterful tomes. His books are as interesting as I'd thought they'd be, though still different than I expected. So far I'm most interested in The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, the earliest of the three (1983). It may be that this book contains informaiton useful to the understanding and assimilation of the other two. We'll see.


Moon Missions

Dave writes eloquently about the Columbia accident, the reality of death in our lives, and how we go forward. It's a good read.


Amateur Hour: the "me" in media

New column by Jonathon Peterson: Amateur Hour.


Lather, Rinse, Repeat

WriteTheWeb has an Awesome interview with Brent Simmons, impressario from Ranchero Software and author of NetNewsWire.


Information Research Weblog

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:


New Conversant Sites, New Conversant Features (to me!)

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:

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.

Plone

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. -)


SBC infringes navigation patent

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


Our Big Fat fun night

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.
