Scripting News, the weblog started in 1997 that bootstrapped the blogging revolution.

NY Times: "Every time you play a CD, the machine automatically copies its tracks onto its built-in 20-gigabyte hard drive. Thereafter, you can play back those songs without having to insert the original CD. The hard drive holds 300 CD's worth of music, turning this handsome unit into a self-contained jukebox." 

Via Glenn Reynolds I'm getting the idea that something is going on in Iran. But it's not clear to me what is going on. Postscript: I heard a report on the BBC during my daily walk that one of the main clerics in Iran had resigned, citing the well-known corruption among the clerics and calling for reform. Postscript to the postscript, my daily walks are up to 40 minutes now. Not walking at quite the pace I'm accustomed to, but when I come back I feel so damned good.  

Russ Jones has a weblog that watches PayPal. 

Paul Boutin: "What's Palladium?" 

Chris Taylor: "In this brave new world of information, media is organic. There's a whole food chain going on. The big journalists and the little journalists help keep each other alive." 

Paul Andrews: "Idealism lives in America, it just needs a voicebox." Note to Paul. A motto like It's even worse than it appears is timeless, and can't be dropped. It's always a good fit.  

Sam Ruby: "It's a shame that 99% of attorneys give the other 1% a bad name." 

Bernie DeKoven: "I live in a world where it is increasingly difficult to develop healthy, supportive human relationships. Go ahead, count them. The healthy, supportive relationships in your life. The time you actually spend doing healthy, supportive things together." 

Four weeks -- no smokes. 28 days. Still think about them, but less often (in other words, not every waking moment). The heat wave has broken. Today the forecast high is in the 80s, not the 100s. Whew. There's a new movie coming out, I may catch it later today; and I got a recommendation for a three hour movie that's playing in downtown Palo Alto. So there's a backlog of flicks to see now. 

John Robb is doing morning coffee notes. It's been a while since I've done some. Really slacking.
