  • Concharto - An atlas of historical events, which uses Google Maps and can be edited by anyone. I’m going to map out West Virginia as the place where Hillary Clinton staged her come-from-behind win to snag the Democratic Presidential Nomination. Historic, historic!  (-)
  • The Giant Pool of Money - The entire episode of This American Life is dedicated to detailing just what happened to lead us into this global credit crunch. The answer couldn’t be simpler. (2)
  • Mahalo: How to Go Green in Your Kitchen - Aside from the remodel information, I’m glad that we do most of what is on that list. I don’t yet compost (our neighborhood has strict rules on this) but I am looking into a small compost bin I can use in the backyard.  (-)
  • Ni Hao, Kai-lan - The new-ish Nick Jr. show where kids learn Mandarin Chinese. My friend Matt writes and produces all of the songs for each episode. It’s actually fun to watch! (Update: changed the main link to YouTube where you can actually watch the show.) (-)

  • Once the narrative, always the narrative - “Every time McCain screws up, the media jump all over themselves to make it better, as if grandpa had said something embarrassing at the dinner table and it needed to be smoothed over as quickly as possible.” (-)
  • AppMenuBoy - Returns the Dock application menu to Leopard. It “shows only applications, follows aliases, and if a folder contains only an application, it silently “hoists” that application in the menu so you don’t have hierarchical menus that contain only a single icon.” (-)
