Mandela
Reading this interview with former president Bill Clinton [part1, part2](via Metafilter) , the following portion stuck out (on meeting Mandela): I said that, ‘Now, come on, when you got to walk out of prison the last time, didn’t you hate … Continue reading

Alternet
I haven’t read or touched Alternet since last year and when returning today I must confess I’m impressed with the site’s layout that it makes me wonder what they are running on their backend. (Compare it with the 2004 site). … Continue reading

Hearing. Aid.
One article that caught my eye was this one over at Ars Technica: The iPod generation that becomes deaf (originally via Slashdot/Wired article): Researchers fear the growing popularity of portable music players and other items that attach directly to the … Continue reading

Google maps
Via Scoble, Google has post-Katrina maps of New Orleans (Scoble link). According to Scoble, the Microsoft Virtual Team is on it too, but I guess, Google beat them to it. Watching CNN the last couple of days, I noticed that … Continue reading

All silliness aside
All sillyness aside, I feel terribly bad about the hurricane victims of Katrina. I saw that over Google, there are 6,000+ related links about this disaster. I know exactly what this feels like, when Juan hit Nova Scotia, a couple … Continue reading

Call me old fashioned
Call me old fashioned, but I have to smile when I read the following over at Kottke: For those of you who read the remaindered links in a newsreader, you may not have even noticed the change. Kottke on reading … Continue reading
