We live under the Confederacy. We’re a podunk bunch of swaggering pious hicks.’ ” – Excerpt from… Continue reading William Gibson
About Google Desktop Search
About Google Desktop Search – Word on the street (OK, hallway conversation with someone who tried it) is that the new Google Desktop Search is very cool. I’m downloading it now, to try it on my work PC. I suspect it would be even more useful at home, though.

Webnote – an online tool for taking notes – Yet another amazing little web application someone created and is giving away for free. I’m not sure just what problem I have that this will solve, but it sure seems cool.
