Traditions with your kids
Every Saturday morning, I take my boys to Krispy Kreme. Just us – my 3 year old calls it “Boys Only Breakfast” and as the week wears on, each morning he asks “Is it Saturday yet?” I look forward to it, the boys love the time alone, and it’s become a nice part of our…

New web-based aggregator
From my referral logs, MyWireService appears to be a new web-based aggregator. Free while in beta. Might be worth a look.

Office space
No, not the movie — the concept. Joel on Software has an outstanding overview of how they just built their new office environment. Thinking out how space is used is criminally ignored. I just had to spend a half hour this morning rearranging my desk because there’s no easy way to get a monitor on…

Interesting blog enhancements
First, from Lilia Efimova — the Waypath plguin (for both Radio and Movable Type) that lets you show possibly related links from other blogs. It apparently identifies text strings in the current post and attempts to match them to others in the blogosphere. I haven’t played with it yet, but it strikes me as something…

Jack O’Toole on Dean supporters
I’m not the only one calling on Dean supporters to focus their energy on supporting Dean instead of trashing others. Jack O’Toole writes today: Lastly, the folks getting carried away in this fashion are putting their own candidate in a tight spot. Because the Dean campaign has paid its Internet supporters the high compliment of…
