Leave the libraries alone. You don’t understand their value.
Being one who works at a library, this article moved me even though the institutions are separated by an ocean.

Blind man drives around Daytona Speedway | abc7.com
Awesome, just awesome. Everyday I come to work there is something new going on in the work of technology. When something related to the visually impaired comes up I am all over it. This is one of the coolest videos you will watch today. The suggest by the NFB that blind drivers will be able to hit the road in 10 years is amazing in and of itself. Sounds like an ambitious plan, for now I will remain mildly skeptical.

I am inspired. Thanks Steve for the link.
Quick & Dirty Tips :: Twitter
If you are like me and use Twitter as a way to communicate in a “quick and dirty” way then reading this post by Grammar Girl will help with etiquette. Micro-blogging is much more difficult than it seems, 140 characters is limiting.

The Death Of “Web 2.0″
I think that Robin Wauters over at TechCrunch has a great summation of the death of Web 2.0. Check it out and leave a comment.
Apple Anouncements
Well Apple had their big event today and I have to say that I was underwhelmed. I have yet to figure out if it was due to the fact that there where no surprises as a result of leaks from the past few weeks or that Steve just made a general menton of the 2.1 update which still does not (I assume) include cut and paste. I will have to report on the outcome on Friday when the update drops.
WordPress on iPhone
Well I am happy to report that the iPhone WordPress app works swimingly! Well done.
Joost Invites To Give Away
Apparently Joost is not as popular as I thought… Or, I spend to much time one the net compared to those I associate with. I have asked all of my friends if they would like a Joost invite, and the most common response is “What is Joost?” from the look of absolute horror on my face in response to this people ask “what is wrong?” To that I say “am I the only person plugged into the Internet?” I realize that it is just series of tubes, but dang… Joost is everywhere in the space isn’t it? Anyway, I have two invites that expire on the 22nd, and am now offering them to the first two posters to this comment.
