Not easy to hold a shot for a full second when you're standing on a boat

Boston Bridge:

Rode a boat around Boston Harbor last night. Got this pic of the cool new suspension bridge next to the Fleet Center.

Well sown

Dan Bricklin has released ListGarden, an RSS feed generator. Looks like an ideal way to extend easy RSS generation from blogs to everything else: newsletters, private websites, whatever. It's a free-standing utility that runs as a local HTTP server app or through CGI on a remote server. No need to know XML, HTML or RSS details. Runs on Linux, OS X and Windows. Open source (written in Perl), released under the GPL. Launches a new category, methinks.

Very cool.

Toon in, turn on

My mind is being blown by Hugh MacLeod's Gapingvoid blog. His cartoons are fucking terrific. Hugh is an advertising guy, in case you couldn't tell. In that and other capacities, he's hijacked the Cluetrain and taken it off on a whole new track.
