Bill R.: Isn't discovery grand? I just today stumbled across Ray O's weblog - one of the top 10 reads (according to the Radio Userland statistics). Let me tell you Ray, the article in your 'stories' section are wonderful. A tremendous mix of technology and humanity. Proud to be a loyal subscriber to your prose...

Alas, the blog takes a back seat to work & life.  I'm learning that travel 7 of 9 weeks isn't conducive to the blogging state of mind, regardless of technology.

welcome to mlife. [Ray Ozzie's Weblog]

Bill R.: This is a great, great article about that new necessity of life - earphones. I ride the bus and metro to work one or two days a week and like to listen to either music (MP3 player) or news (NPR on FM). And I like to listen on the plane. Once you get past the right device to use, the next step is invariably replacing the lousy earbud style earphones that just don't stay in my ears. Here is a great list of alternatives to choose from.
