I suppose I have to say something about that Wired article about blogs that's been all over the Net today. I haven't read it yet, but for now, read this from The Shifted Librarian:

"That's why I called all of this new PR a "tipping point," because now I can show these people something that they will read, rather than a technical article or an online message about blogging written by a blogger. Their eyes will glaze over unless it's on NPR, and even Wired is pushing it for them."

"In fact, I was in a department meeting this morning where those of us who care about blogging at all were far outnumbered by those who don't. This gives me something to prove to them that it's going beyond "techies" and yes, they should care."

Via the Zope Announce list, Python Journal Volume 2(2):

"Python Journal new issue 2(2) is out and about at pythonjournal.cognizor.com with articles and a fairly detailed digest of the content of the 4 very full days of the 2002 Python10 conference. Focus in the articles of this issue is on deepening understanding of how python works -- recursion, PySpy."

PySpy looks incredibly impressive. I haven't had time to grok it all yet... look for yourself! It can show you the inner workings of running Python code! A debugger on steroids?

We should definitely disallow any Internet traffic from Taiwan to come into America's servers. More spam must come from there than anywhere else in the world.

More bugs in Microsoft's products. In fact, this bug is so bad it can cause bugs in your code. That's why Mark Pilgrim calls this a metabug

"Executable code built by using Microsoft's Visual C++.NET and Visual C++ version 7 compiler is vulnerable to a buffer overflow attack, software risk management firm Cigital reports. So a security feature designed to provide bug free code is itself subject to exactly the same kind of bug it's supposed to prevent."

I've been surfing looking at bulletin board software, and everyone seems to be rewriting theirs! What the heck...
