From the Personal Dept:

I need to take a night and catch up on my email. And do laundry. Hm.

Wi-Fi access in Laundromats would be way cool. Some of my Maine friends would say "wicked cool", and they would be right.





From the Reading Dept:

Notes on Reading an Electronic Book [Boing-Boing]

I've read several books on my Palm. The screen is small so I'm hitting the down-arrow about every 10 seconds, but it is convenient.





From the Cocoa Dept:

NSLog(); - The Year of Cocoa

In one way, OS 9 is two years old by now. Three OS versions. I wonder exactly when software developers (or their users) will be able to let go of Classic? I'm betting it'll be a few more years yet.

Then again, with so many API calls just plain not implemented in OS 9...





From the Coding Dept:

rentzsch.com: Unit Testing Saves State

I've got to find a nice, simple unit testing framework for C++. I've been using my own (homegrown) system up until now... but I like using standard tools. Any suggestions?





From the War Dept:

DaveNet : Eve of destruction [Scripting News]

War opinions. I actually saw some local protesters on the street corner a few nights ago...





From the Future Dept:

MacSlash Editorial: Dreaming Big

Interesting ideas on how to advance the state of the art in news reading. I especially like the idea about ratings, and the agreegator finding feeds for me. Now that would be cool.





From the Politics Dept:

kuro5hin.org || Cook's resignation speech

Interesting info.. I wonder if the big networks picked up on it (or, probably, not)
