Shocked: 99 alien fish snagged in pond [CNN - US] 1:08:08 PM    Clarence Westberg's Links & Comments

Something for Nothing. With all the reports on the launch of the Microsoft .NET Architecture Center yesterday, people may have missed an interesting footnote in the press release - Microsoft is loosening the reins on the Visual Studio Integration SDK a little. While VS.NET is pretty extensible right out of the box, the VSI SDK is the key to advanced extensions such as syntax highlighting, custom designers, etc. Previously the SDK was only available as part of VSIP, which was pricey at $10k/year for 3 years. Enterprise customers with the right licensing deals can now get the SDK at no charge. Not quite "download it free from microsoft.com" yet, but a step in the right direction.

Goin' on holidays! See you July 30th (or before, possibly). I'm taking a couple weeks' holidays, starting early tomorrow morning. I'll only be blogging intermittently, if at all, though Mark and Pesco will surely take up the slack! I really need a break -- I'm going to catch up on some writing projects, see some friends, read some books and celebrate my 31st birthday. I'm also going to be intermittent on email, so if there's something you want to ask me and it can wait until July 30th, hold off until then (if you've got some EFF business to discuss, Seth will be taking up the slack in my absence). I may post another thing or two before bed (my bags are packed, but I've just realized that I left my multitool at the office and I need to go grab it, so I may not get back onto the box tonight). In the meantime, here are some of the links that I visit every day -- I heartily recommend them to you if you're digging for linky gold: Wired News | /. | Salon | memepool.com | EvHead | Kottke | Megnut | blogaritaville@scriban.com | Stuff About Things. | Salad With Steve | SATN.org | The Adventures of AccordionGuy in the 21st Century | On Lisa Rein's Radar | Tavie | Sisterdread | Electrolite | Making Light | New World Disorder | Robot Wisdom | This Modern World | Schism Matrix | Forwarding Address: OSX | Charlie's Diary | Werblog | Vitanuova | Dan Gillmor | Hack the Planet | CamWorld | Aaron Swartz | ambiguous | Oblomovka | MeFi | pberry: Radio Edition | Scripting News | raelity bytes | The Doc Searls Weblog | 802.11b networking news | a day late and a :: dollarshort.org | Imparte | Let's WARCHALK! | Black Belt Jones | Yoz | Ben Hammersley | Justin's Links | This demands work | Amygdala | Jihaddict | Happiest Geek on Earth | Centrs | The Shifted Librarian | Harrumph | Powazek | Ernie the Attorney | Backup Brain | Paul Boutin | MemeMachineGo | Rebecca's Pocket | Consensus at Lawyerpoint | Lawmeme | A Whole Lotta Nothing | Kung Fu Grippe | Nick Denton | Wasted Bits | 24-Hour Drive-Thru | Songdog Got favorite links of your own (or just wanna plug your site)?
