Jay Allen: "With the TypeKey authentication services and other great features of MT 3.0, it looks like there will no longer be a need for MT-Blacklist’s continued development." 

MetaFilter thread on TypeKey. 

The questions I asked yesterday are unanswered. 

7/17/00: How to share a membership group.  

Tommy Trussell: "For the next pair you buy, try the New Balance Factory Outlet at the former New Balance factory in Brighton."
