I finished Who Moved My Cheese just before I got sick (Thursday night actually). It was a great book, and a very quick read. I handed it to my wife, and suggested she read it as well.
What's cool about the book? Well, the first thing that comes to mind is that it makes you step back and look at how to handle change. You end up asking what things are you afraid to have change, and (at least for me) I wondered which one of the characters I was in different situations.
For the most part, I think I'm a Haw. I don't keep my eyes open sniffing out change, like Sniff, and when I see change I'm not fast to react to it, like Scurry. It takes me some time to react to change, but when I finally get moving I find that I like it, and that I analize why I didn't make the move sooner. I can't think of a time when I wasn't willing to make a change (definatally a Hem), but I'm sure that some friends could point those instnaces out to me *grin*.
So, if all these characterizations in the last paragraph just went over your head, go read the book...it should only take an hour.

I just gave NewsGator a spin. Looks pretty nice. It puts the each blog into specific folders, will read in an OPML file (nice for Radio Users), and I can delete them just as I would anything else in Outlook. So far, I like it....Will I change....It's possible. Of course I'd still use Radio for posting to my various blogs.

Here are a couple of articles on WiFi security that I have come across in the last month or so. They are certainly worth a read.
(Wireless Security Issues) http://www.arstechnica.com/paedia/w/wireless/security-1.html
(A Wireless Antenna) http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/weblog/view/wlg/448
(Wireless Security, some ideas) http://www.smallbusinesscomputing.com/webmaster/article.php/1498861
(10 Tips to more secure wireless) http://www.infopackaging.com/disp_ind_news.cfm?news_id=58
(Top 10 Wireless Security Tips) http://www.whitehatadvisory.com/articles/020628-wirelesstips.html
Some of the tips in the last two articles are redundant, however, not all of them were so I thought it was worthwhile to include both articles.
