Amazing idea from Scott Adams. Dilbert Mashups. Check this post What’s Your Best Dilbert Punch Line? from Mashable!: > “Dilbert has a huge following and I’m sure lots of people will have fun making their own punch lines for the popular comic, and there are even a few sharing options (embedding, email, social bookmarking, etc.) that will allow those Dilber writer-wannabes to share their humorous wit with friends across the web. One drawback, though, is the fact that you can only create a mashup for the current day’s comic strip.” Check it out!

I am advising a client who is interested in reaching out to a huge existing community of folks who they, historically and today, can count as their natural constituency.The problem is, they don’t have their names or email addresses and want to connect to them, and them to each other. The question is...
From a few previous posts you know that I have a curiosity about congestion pricing as a [way to allay traffic jams](http://http//www.salas.com/2008/03/22/what-does-urban-congestion-have-to-do-with-mesh-networks...
People wonder about Wikipdia and what it’s good for. This is an example from a while back, of Wikipedia at it’s best. Lots of details, edited and co-edited by many people giving you a feeling that there’s less bias: Wikipedia on the Virgina Tech Tragedy
Look closely at the dialog box on the right. It’s Mac OS X info sheet for an attached Windows computer. Now look even more closely at the simulated screen on the image of an ugly big CRT monitor. See the BSOD? Who said they don’t have a sense of humor?
Saturday Night Liveis having the best season in years. Consistently much funnier than last year or the year before. Last night, Christopher Walken again was extremely funny: the writing was funny and his delivery was funnier. But. It is **extremely dis...

I’ve wondered and written before about the ‘downside’ or ‘risk’ of building your application based on one of the excellent SAAS services from Amazon. And I do think they are excellent.

I bet you’ve not heard of another crazy-cool service from Google, Google Sets.

For you slow pokes who have not yet upgraded to Leopard, my continuing experience might be of interest (then again it may not.) If you are a real slow poke you may not know that Leopard is Apple’s new generation operating system for the Mac line. My reference above to Vista is mostly tongue-in-cheek...
Usually more on the bleeding edge than this, I decided to wait until now to upgrade my macs to Leopard which is the name of the new Mac OS X release. If anything interesting happens I will let you know. Hopefully nothing interesting will happen 🙂 - Why does the Leopard update begins with an exhaustive and lengthy “checking of the DVD for consistency”? process? I haven’t heard much about DVDs getting mysteriously turned inconsistent. Maybe they are doing something else and just making up a more tolerable exuse for the 30 minute do-nothing delay. - I have a 4 year old iMac G4 notebook. I wonder if Leopard will like it.
