Lifeblog is yet another app that gratuitously uses the Atom API (Dec 21 2004 23:42 GMT) - <rant>After skimming the PDF, I see no reason why Lifeblog didn't use the MetaWeblog API over SSL rather than the Atom API.

"We Are Totally Running on Fumes" (Dec 21 2004 23:41 GMT) - From an interview (audio only available here) by NPR's Alex Chadwick of Howard Davidowitz, chairman of the retail-consulting and investment-banking firm Davidowitz and Associates, heard on Day to Day this past Monday.

A Diagnosis of Self-Healing Systems (Dec 21 2004 23:40 GMT) - gManZboy writes "We've been hearing about self-healing systems for a while, but (as is usual), so far it's more hype than reality.
