> Don Park: I woke up this afternoon (late working again) and found that my wife had capatured five adult cucumbers from our yard. I knew them from their early childhood, so seeing them lined up in our kitchen made me...hungry. So I lovingly chopped up one of them and ate it while thinking about what I should do to remember them. This is what I came up with...

> John Robb: One thing I always wanted to do is to pull together experts in combination with an online advertising agency to build an About.com on the cheap using weblogs. I think I have the advertising agency that would pay the bills. Would any be interested in doing this? It would be pure collaborative revenue share and I think lots of fun.

> Ralf Zeigermann: Drainspotting is a website with pictures of manhole covers, drains, grates and trench covers. I actually find it quite interesting. Mhm - this surely must have been blogged before somewhere? Anyway, just found the link at linkfilter.

> Glenn Fleishman: An ongoing irritation for me in reading coverage of companies that give up the ghost or might is that reporters, even business reporters, confuse several concepts around bankruptcy, investment, and losses, such as this report on Salon.com...

> Dave Winer: Silent in the recent michegas are the people who have been laboring over software and feeds and quietly working with people to create and use RSS. Imho, those are the people who should be setting the priorities, not engineers from other disciplines. I can't open a post for user and developer comments, because the usual people will take over. We're being controlled from the outside, that's the feeling I get, and it feels like crap...

> Adam Curry: I've been tracking Dave's work on his subscriptions harmonizer. I haven't delved into all the details yet, but It seems to me this is the perfect tool for weblogs in a place of business.

Powerful mojo.
