Another use for Google Docs

I have found Google Docs to be very useful for maintaining a private cheat sheet of some of my favorite, but less memorable vim commands.

Technorati Supports OpenID

Technorati will now support OpenID so that it can provide yet another way to claim your blog. And this method does appear to be its quickest.

Now only if the OpenID team can finalize its 2.0 specifications can I start using my i-name in OpenID without having to tack on the xri.net, http proxy.

Dirty Car Art

Scott Wade’s Dirty Cart Art Gallery

This sure beats having someone finger “wash me” into the dirt of your car.   Pretty neat stuff.

In or Out?

Is Eating Out Cheaper Than Eating In? I often revisit this question on a monthly basis (and its usually whenever the bills are due). I have always preferred eating out, because it’s quick. Other reasons include the fact that I do not enjoy left-overs and that I only cook for one person. So, I usually spend about $7-10 a meal when eating out. That’s almost $20 a day.

I found my most cost and time effective solution to be eating out for dinner and eating in (paper-bagging) for lunch. The reason being is that lunch requires very few ingredients that last for about a week.  Specifically, breads and deli meats.

Though, I tend to do the opposite. I usually eat out for both lunch and dinner, but occasionally will cook dinner (such as pastas and some frozen meals). The reason I eat out for lunch is because I prefer social meals. Also, I can never remember to make my lunch the night before.

I wonder if frozen meals are healthier than eating out? They taste great and can be lighter on the wallet.

p.s. Eating out for me does not include any place that offers “super-sized” or “value menu” meals.

Threatening the President Online = Bad Idea

Teen questioned for online Bush threat.

I’m glad.  Isn’t it terrorists who want to undermine the US Government and destroy American citizens?

Code Search

I’m not sure how long this has been out, but I just found Google’s Code Search today. Anyways, I found this search to be particularly entertaining (and scary).

Cursor Icon Confusion

I just visited Lefsetz Letter, where I noticed that they use the cross hair cursor for text selection instead of the I-bar cursor. This seems more logical to me, especially since the I-bar represents editable text and cross represents selection. So how did the I-bar become the standard. So, check out that website and let me know what you think of the cross hairs.
