Tiny Tiny RSS...
I’ve been using Gregarius as my primary RSS aggregator for quite a while now. It is simple and uncluttered, it’s AJAXy where it needs to be, it parses XML data very well, and the best part…it runs from my own server. Alas, Gregarius hasn’t been updated in a very long time and, truthfully, it’s been acting pretty buggy for the past few months.

Maemo UI design...
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been spending some time writing a document called, “An Unofficial Guide to Creating a Most Excellent maemo User Interface.” Maemo, if you don’t know, is the open-source development platform that applications are created under for the Nokia Internet Tablets (currently, the 770 and the N800). The document has just gone to beta, so I thought it would be a good time to mention something about it publicly.

Odd watch, new eyes?
Yesterday, while waiting for Julianna to get prepped for Lasik, I noticed that my watch was acting very odd…

Speaking of cool interfaces on the N800...
Have you tried iphone.facebook.com on your N800 yet? Sweet!

Scrybe on the N800...
Yesterday, I mentioned that I was using the beta version of Scrybe. I still think it’s as slick as I said it was, but there are definitely still some bugs that need to be worked out. I tried following the instructions to the “t,” but I still can’t figure out how to import events from another calendar (as you can see by the picture, I’ve figured it out). And, when using Flock, the ThoughtPad is a bit b0rked (i.e., I can’t see what I’m typing). Also, inviting contacts to share calendars and notes only seems to work for me in Internet Exploder (although, I need to give that subject some more testing)...

Scrybe...
I just logged into my beta account for Scrybe, an AJAX-powered, interactive planner (calendars and todo lists) and “Thoughtpad” (journal, image library, bookmark organizer, etc.). A while back, it was pretty big news because of this video.
And, I have to admit…

A little late, but love's love, right?
Anyone see the latest issue of Linux Journal?

"The Gripping"
“The Gripping”
(by me)
Black clouds’
Sharp fingers grip
The unsuspecting nape of
Soft blue sky
Constricting what was left of
A perfect Saturday afternoon
The sun,
Mysterious as ever,
Withdraws under covers
Tired after warding off imminent obscurity
Probably thinking
He could sleep in tomorrow
Ants scurry
To tie down mounds
Making sure the lights
In all of the exit signs are lit
Pointing to the single pinhole of brightness
That’s mocking them by quickly dimming
Lightly at first
Almost affectionate —
Hard to believe from such pointy digits
But then the true side shows
The surface never hides what’s underneath
For long
Rumbles roll
Subsonic and slow
Then strike
And another and another
Faster than the eye now
Effortlessly finding their marks
The lightlessness weighs heavy
Until one after the other,
From blows to patters,
Love returns
Right?
Maybe.
