Trying something new
My arthritis is getting really really bad. It’s not that I’m old. I’m not. In fact, my sister’s three years younger than me and she’s got worse arthritis than me. (Added later: I’m only in my thirties.) But I really can’t type much anymore, and so today, and in fact with this blog post, I [...]

The amazing falling woman
There are time sinks and there are time sinks. I actually stared, mesmerized, at this through an hour long phone meeting. If the original disappears, see it at Dwight Silverman’s TechBlog.
