The Brown Daily Herald interviews Ellen Feiss, and she's every bit as wise and hilarious as you might think she would be. The Feiss interview is impossible to access. Thanks to Cory Doctorow for mirroring a plain text version.

Brent's request matches a feature already implemented by Movable Type. It would be wonderful to see Blogger join the parade and support the MetaWeblog API.

I've never missed a year writing a DaveNet for Thanksgiving, and I swear this year won't be the first, even though I've not written one essay so far this month. There's so much to be thankful for, big stuff, like people close by being alive, through great challenges. Like the US coming through terrorism and for better or worse, still being America, land of the free, home of the brave. I am thankful for the SF Giants who showed such tenacity, and then showed they weren't perfect. So what. It was great baseball. I'll never forget it. I will find a way to thank the Attorney General who gave the Web to Scrooge, there must be some light at the end of his tunnel, I'll work to find it. I still have about a week to work on this piece. As you can see I have already started. Last year's Thanksgiving piece is here. A list of previous pieces is here.
