TextWrangler Is Free!. Boy, the MacWorld Expo is just full of goodies. First all the new stuff from Apple. Then Bare Bones Software cuts loose version 2 of TextWrangler [~] a text editor for Mac OS X [~] and announces that it's available for free! While TextWrangler doesn't have quite the feature set of BBEdit, it's still a dandy piece of software. And you can't beat the price. Load it up on your shiny new $500 Mac Mini and you'll be coding like Deane in no time! (well, maybe. No guarantees, though.) [Gadgetopia] 8:32:13 PM    comment []

Anthenea. Anthenea habitats are more like a raft than a boat. The UFO-styled pods have mainly been used on water so far but the self-contained Anthenea can actually be placed anywhere. They are best suited for water however, where their glass windows provide deepsea viewing without the need of a wetsuit. There are three models, the cozy studio, two-story loft and the 1,900 square foot king which provides room for all the comforts of home. They all feature posh interior details like Bang & Olufsen stereos and flatscreen TVs. I[base ']d still prefer something with a motor but it[base ']s a neat idea for anyone who likes to stay in one spot. [Luxist] 2:37:19 PM    comment []

MSN Search supports RSS. This is very cool, and it's a differentiator for their search service because Google doesn't do it, nor does Yahoo, Jeeves, etc. It's also nice because they listened to us at the design review meeting late last year in Redmond. It was nearly unanimous among the bloggers that RSS support should be part of the search engine, both on the sending and receiving sides. Now one half has been taken care of. I'm sure this feature will gain wide use among bloggers. Very good. [Scripting News] 11:23:01 AM    comment []
