9-11: The inevitable piece on "where were you". Well, here in Germany it was late afternoon when the first plane hit the WTC. Just as my colleagues and I were viewing the first pictures on the Net - and thinking this was some kind of joke or freak accident, my wife rang to tell me that our youngest son (then just turned 2) had just badly dislocated his arm and was on his way to hospital. So I remember speeding to the hospital, picking up our other kids from the gymnasium and listening to the events on the radio. Then the rush back home to turn on CNN. And the rest is history. iCal not worth the price: This piece picks up on some of the problems I came accross even after just a few minutes with iCal.

Small googlewhack: S&N offers Cocoon Schulung and Cocoon Seminar.

Names up: I am #16 on google for Matthew. Carsten is #5 for Carsten (inspired by Dave). iCal: Installed iCal yesterday and took it for a spin. I like the way you can have multiple calanders - but how can you tweak the display to only show one at a time (I don't think you can). This is something I would need. Update: I've just realized that I probably only need to remove the checkmark from the calender definition. I'll try that when I get home tonight.
