I seem to start writing a lot of stuff that I can’t be bothered to finish. Or, equally, I write stuff that I decide is stupid, and so I decide not to post it. The latter, at least, is good, I think — I’m being my own editor. And everyone knows that every good writer needs a good editor.

Rackspace advertises on 37signals’ site.

Becks & Posh: 48 out of 100

Facebook is getting weird today:
