Technorati: from one beta to the next
Glad to see Technorati take another step forward. Still labelled beta, but clearly much further along than previously. Good luck Rich, David, Dan, et al.

Movie: Lost in Translation
Yeah, I finally caught up with the rest of the you and watched Lost in Translation (thank you, Netflix). A quiet movie that didn’t drag = worth the time. And, maybe, the hype. (Although I dislike the pop-up on their website trumpeting the awards the film has won. If you’re that thrilled, put it on…

Book: The Innovator’s Solution
Clayton Christensen recognized that he hit a home run with The Innovator’s Dilemma. A smart man, he swings at a similar pitch the next time around. With Michael Raynor (previously a student of Christensen’s) as a co-author, Christensen wrote The Innovator’s Solution. Where Dilemma was more description, Solution adds prescription.

Will 10.3.3 do the trick?
I’m reading the Apple KnowledgeBase note for the Mac OS X 10.3.3 update. I have not yet installed it, but I am thrilled to read this bullet item. Addresses an issue in which Mail could unexpectedly quit when marking some types of unsolicited messages (or “spam”) as Junk. I haven’t been hit by this problem…

I’ve been this guy
Review the fun(ny) images here. I’ve linked to the one I liked best, but try those Back and Next links, too.
