Tab sweep

Closing all my Firefox tabs before shutting down, here's what's on them.

The Youtube Bi Bim Bop Song (blogged). There's a Drupal song flying around too which deserves a Drupal haters remix.

An upcoming.org pointer to the Grexwalk Lunch Saturdays - this week in Ypsi at Aubrees. Think a2b3, but tied to the grex online community that has been running nonstop since 1990 or so keeping a software system alive and offering free public community access computing.

An invite to Walker Tracker , my favorite online community and personal fitness motivation tool. (Steps today, 14417, including a big wodge of time spent simultaneously exercising and deleting email.)

Billy Sothern's In Lieu of Flowers elegy to Helen Hill, murdered in New Orleans. (blogged separately too)

An invite to the a2b3 lunch list which just hit 100 members. This week's lunch was fortunately not as huge as some - there was an ideal number of people at the tables where you could have one conversation with everyone, something like 15 or 16 (but not 22).

The About Us page for the Chicago Crime site, one of the best systems I've seen to track crime in an urban setting.

The Google Maps API official blog on KML and GeoRSS support, making map mashups into Google Maps all that much easier and standards-based.

GeoPress, a WordPress geocoding plugin that generates GeoRSS for above-mentioned map mashups.

Polimom Says writing about New Orleans in the "we are not ok" category (with way too many posts).

Some work stuff (move along, move along).

103bees search log analysis code, and trying to untangle some sloppy Typepad coding I did to get better reporting.

Journler, a Mac OS X application for keeping a life log; very lovely, nice place to dump ideas into, not sure I need yet another place to write. But as I said it's lovely, so it will stay open for a while.

Jorn Barger's Robot Wisdom (must read) on Web 3.0: Ego abhors a vacuum

the challenge of meditation
is not to think

and relishing his unique and thoroughly web-steeped philosophical presence when reading it.

and finally Gmail inbox, the hardest game I have ever played, with a new level boss every single day. Inbox 11, 0 unread, down from something like 100 at the start of the day. I killed 20 monsters (er, deleted 20 emails) while out on my walk using Google Mobile Mail on my phone, very nice.
