It's been in the news, the announcement that Apple is sending legal threats to popular weblogs connected to the leaking of insider information to the general public. It makes me very happy to see that EFF will fight Apple for this one.
Meanwhile, I will be attening MacWorld not only to visit the EFF booth, but also to check out the iPod Shuffle to see if it is really worth what they are saying. For $149, I could walk away with an XBox. Xbox or 1 GB music player. This doesn't seem like a decision that requires much thought, but then again, I'm a video gamer and don't see what's so cool about a 1GB flash drive with play controls. At least Apple was smart and priced it to be competitive with the Scandisk version. Even so, the allure seems gone when for less than double you can walk away with a 5GB iPod mini and five times the songs.
The PM system rewrite continues at a slow pace, mostly because now it's back to some rewrites and adjustments to the forums for compatibility. This is also the first system I started on back with the permissioning module. Gotta love how these things come full circle.

In response to "Protecting Blogger’s Rights, plus iPod Shuffle":
you know me… Apple always good compared to…?
sorry to see you sick … btw, thanks for the insight into CSS- I think I actually got it now- at least the lower end stuff.
Sorry to miss you at MW, but with $$ in my pocket, and too much work on the table- it would have been a dangerous outing. peace
