Scripting News: 7/11/2005
I’d like Apple to implement an element that says right up front, this feed does not work with iTunes. I’d be the first to put that element in my feed, so that anyone who wants to know why my feed doesn’t work with iTunes need look no further. It doesn’t work with iTunes by design. Please consider that a feature request, Steve.

AMEN, Brother Dave!

Now this looks cool! Wish the price tag was a bit lower but I suspect the tech will develop and price will fall fairly quickly.

Wired News: Making a Plug for Hybrids

—

I wish them luck. The battery situation is still just not there for full sized autos. The hybrid seems to be the best compromise so far.

Treehugger: Cold-Water Coffee by Toddy

—

Makes me wonder if just letting the coffee grounds soak over night and then straining them out wouldn’t do the same thing? I love the odor and taste of coffee but the old gut don’t like it one little bit.

Interesting read. Bit of a glimpse into his personal life. But I don’t think that there is a difference between his work and personal life after reading this…

Nero Wolfe
Working on my Nero-Wolfe covers site. Got WordPress installed and finely configured. Some of the category settings gave me fits but finely figured out where to change them. Setting up a category for each title. Not sure if that is the right way to do it or not but figure it will do for now. And that will allow me to get all the stuff i have now in there and can sort it out later. Yea right. Has taken me over 2 years to get to this update…

Bought 5 more domain names today too. Got murdertheywrote.com and .net, deathondemand.com and .net and nero-wolfe.net. Got the hosting set up. Now to build the sites. At least got to get a redirect page up to point to bluespringsbazaar.com as murdertheywrote.com and .net, deathondemand.com and .net are going to be book sales sites.

Back to the mines…
