Cool Tool - Google Desktop Search

This is a fantastic tool. I had forgotten the definitions of the fields on a new report I need to write Help for, and this allowed me to find a cache of the doc from Feb. 11 that has the information I need. It found the cache in my Recycle Bin! Otherwise I would have had to go and bug the developer again to send me the doc. Saved the day. There are concerns about security, since the tool indexes one's hard drive, but for now, I think the risk is worth it.

Map: Yushchenko vs. Yanukovych

This is a map of Yushchenko vs. Yanukovych, round 2.0. In the popular style of coloring candidates, it shows where each candidate's respective strengths are: generally, Yush in the west and Yanu in the east. (It's too small to see percentages; go to the above link for that.)

Our British election endorsement

Interesting - the Economist favors another Labour victory in the UK's general election.

“Didn’t bring a book? We’ve got you covered.”

The airline announcement then goes on to tout the portable video player they have for rent. It plays TV shows and movies. Hmm? Why not a little book collection for borrowing? Could even be a special “airplane” size for portability. Also known as a paperback.
