The integration of all that blogging with the TV show is &lt;i&gt;the&lt;/i&gt; vision of the future. It's what computers add to the mix -- community.

What's needed?  A CMS for a robust personal Website or Weblog.  That is the flaw in Apple's hub strategy - weak publishing tools.  All this great content but nothing that helps you publish anything more complex than a simple home page.&quot; Totally agree. I've been offering to help with this since 1996. I gave up.

Thanks for &lt;i&gt;not&lt;/i&gt; picking up the nauseating gushes about Steve's clothes from Time's story. News.Com mentions nothing earth-shaking. Some people think Time didn't get the whole story. I hope they're right. An Apple-branded TiVO would be nice, with a wireless connection to a laptop so you can program it in your browser. Just a place to start. That's where Microsoft is going.

The ground is soaked from all the rain. The streams are running. There's one spot on my daily walk where the perfume smell of flowers in early bloom is intoxicating. I just stop there and breathe and take it in, it's so sweet. Then I look at my garden, full of weeds that are digging the rain and I wonder if there's anything I can plant now that will survive a frost, because we're sure to get a few more of those before spring comes. Then I wondered why isn't there (or is there) a gardening weblog? We really need a bunch of them, for different climates. I'm in northern California. What could I be planting now?
