Combing Sand

I have a gazillion unread RSS items plus a truckload of mail that I’d love to at least glance at, so I’ll just toss out a few links with the usual terse commentary:

  • Finally, has gone Universal, which means we’re only waiting for someone to port kqemu (or an equivalent).
  • Guido got a Series 60 to run . My take: This is good, but Nokia should get a clue about not having software (or a -based development environment).
  • There’s a lot of noise about a couple of trojans. I’ve yet to come across anything more dangerous than , but user carelessness will damage any OS.
  • I’ve finally had the time to watch this video of a multi-input touch screen - it is indeed amazing, but I will not join the gaggle of hopeful patent watchers in wishing for an tablet just yet, even though hrmpf.com seems to have an inexhaustible supply of diagrams…
  • I had come across WikiCalc , but it seems to have fleshed out a bit more.

Note that Groove has indeed been subsumed, but that it is positioned as a premium complement - which means intends to milk as a cash cow, splitting their offer into tiers (basic screen sharing, SharePoint and the like for intranets, and Groove for road warriors).
  • pfig has a posse. I actually quite like Campfire, although I don’t think it’s earth-shattering in any way.
  • The Sidekick lives on, although I am starting to wonder why.
  • Yes, Dvorak is barking mad. No doubt about it whatsoever.
