My favorite pusher of eBooks, Fictionwise, from whom I’ve purchased hundreds of titles, is about to turn five. Congrats, Scott and crew!

Home Sweet Google
I love Google. And I love my new personalized home page, too. Can you hear my widdle heart go pitter-pat? (If you’re one of the ten people left in the world who need a gmail invite, leave a comment. I have 50.)
Net Abbreviations
Don’t know what WAN, FTP, or LOL mean? Look it up at AbbreviationZ – The A to Z of Acronyms, Abbreviations & Initialisms on the Net.
RSS Aggregator for Outlook
Yes, I’m a big dork who still uses Outlook even though I know better and it’s fulla holes like all M$ software. But it syncs with my PPC, yo – and I’m attached to that. Anyway, who has a hacked copy and/or key for this I can have? You’re not gonna make me look for warez myself, are you?
del.icio.us
I finally did it. I signed up for an account at del.icio.us and I’m in the process of getting all my bookmarks in there.
No, as a matter of fact I am not sure how I lived without it. OMFG, del.icio.us really is as wonderful as all the geeks said it was. It’s definitely replacing my old true love, Yahoo! Bookmarks.
Hitchhiker's Guide
I so want to see this.
Brass Balls for President!
I didn’t see this when it was actually on (like, last year), but here’s Jon Stewart, host of The Daily Show, on CNN’s Crossfire ABSOLUTELY KICKING ASS. He’s got brass balls; I love him.
Do Not Call
While it’s not true that they’ll be giving your cell phone number to telemarketers in the next few weeks, it’s still never a bad idea to run over to the National Do Not Call Registry and enter your phone numbers – even cell numbers – anyway.
Jung Typology Test
Check me out: I’m an ENFP. What type are you? Do you find the results to be accurate? If so, how? How the fuck could they possibly be accurate? The questions cancel themselves out, there aren’t enough to allow for re-wording to bring out the ‘deeper’ opinions we have of ourselves. I think even if you’re as honest as you know how to be, you still end up choosing things you want to be rather that what you currently are. I read several of the results, and I can identify with half of them. It’s like astrology, which I totally identify with. 😉
Actors Get Paxil
This article is disturbing: Doctors Influenced By Mention Of Drug Ads: Offbeat Study Finds Familiar Brand Name Can Evoke A Diagnosis Of Depression.
Apparently if you drop the name of a med you’ve seen on TV, you’re statistically more likely to walk out of your doctor’s office with script. (If they trust us to self-diagnose so readily, why can’t I call in a freaking codine cough syrup prescription when I want one?)
