Sunday Morning Shards #20
On my mind and in the reading queue this week. The “Back to Work” Edition:
MacWorld is this week in San Francisco. I have never been able to filch a pass. I will however be attending the 43 Folders Meetup on Wed. in hopes of filching a Moleskine notebook or an OS X productivity tip.
The simply awesome play The Bright River begins the last two weeks of its run at the Julia Morgan Center for the Arts in Berkeley. Point blank: You cannot afford to miss this play. So don’t. It’s that good.
Does anyone know how to transfer contact information from a Palm Desktop to the Mac OS X Address Book? I tried to use the Missing Sync program by Markspace and got nowhere.
Great Business Week cover story “The Future of the New York Times.”
A Lazyweb request: Some needs to design Del.ici.ous for RSS feeds. In other words, lets say I want to know what feeds my favorite weblogger subscribes to. Would it be cool if a widget would allow them to place their feed list, blogroll style, on their blog and then allow a passerby to drag and drop the feed links into their own rss reader?
Lots of neat people have died in the past week or so. Shirley Chisholm, Will Eisner and Danny Sugarman.
Digital Web profiles the Top 10 Web Companies to Work For.
The AMPEX cassette tape company has filed for bankrupcy and closed down its last factory. There are no other cassette tape factories in the U.S (via Scott Andrew).
The Original Hip-Hop Lyrics Archive is a giant database of tracks and their rhymes.
Musicplasma lets you type in your favorite artist and presents a dots-and-nodes diagram of other artists that sound similar to them (via Del.icio.us/popular).
Who knew rooting out bad grammar could be so much fun?
I finished reading two books this morning. Which felt great.

The del.icio.us thing for RSS feeds is pretty easy if you have a bloglines account (and that’s free, so really, not hard at all). You can share your feed list, and they even provide some real simple ways to integrate it on your site. I’ve got mine up at http://lawver.net/blogroll.
