tools: wikalong &c

Wikalong is a wiki that embeds itself in the Mozilla Firefox browser sidebar. Use it to make a running wiki-commentary of the web, or see what others have said about sites. My favorite mail program, Mozilla Thunderbird, has implemented RSS reading in a recent nightly build. Sam-I-Am, I don't know why this isn't being implemented in Firefox instead; mail application to read a stream of articles that most commonly reference web pages? While I know that RSS can be used for just about anything (e.g.: easily tracking the latest BitTorrents), but in general doesn’t this seem more web-centric than mail-centric?

sad fate

Guardian UK Article *vomits* Where is the line drawn between “public figure” and “celebrity”? How can a dead person have an agent, particulary where there are no specific works concerned other than a sense of character? It’s one thing to insist that Duck Soup is a work that should be protected (which any more simply means controlled by whomever has the most buX0rs), but shouldn’t personalities and such pass into the public domain as well? ( boingboing : Bill Gates 0wns Einstein, Groucho , Freud, Asimov, Fuller, et al )
