• Smart Playlists 101
  If you're an iTunes disciple (guilty as charged) and NOT already using Smart Playlists up the wazoo, here's an excellent overview to get you going.
• Second Life on the Cover of Business Week
  With four stories inside, to boot. While I haven't personally been able to figure out the appeal of SL (I'm trying, really, and plan to try again soon), I think it's absolutely fascinating.
• DMCA revision proposal will jail Americans for "attempting" infringment
  It just gets sadder, more ridiculous and disgusting with every turn. Will it never end?
• The Propensity for Density
  The funniest part is I have tried many times *to* do this - some dense blog designs out there make my teeth ache, they're so good. But I just cannot. Layered and complex designs are not something I excel at. Clean, white... this I can do.
• EFF: RIAA Petition
  Copyright law shouldn't make criminals out of 60 million Americans, and it's time for a change. Tell Congress that it's time to stop the madness! (I'm not an American but for all of you who are... go to!)
• The Great Microsoft Blunder
  Dvorak tells Microsoft: get out of the Internet Browser business. IE was the worst mistake, like, ever. I'm not much on Dvorak any more, but I think he's spot on here.
• Stop Hacking, or be Stopped
  A warning to all those who hack CSS (myself included, for widths) to accomodate IE - with a new browser coming, it's a whole new world.
