    • Moles and Trolls, Moles and Trolls! Snagged from lemurlad -- and as he pointed out, these results shouldn't surprise _anyone_ who knows me. I'm a Real Genius genius! ➡

    • Weekend Project: Keyword Search While running ideas and vague concepts related to my tag-categorization wishlist of the other day, I figured it was worth poking around in the Movable Type Support Forums, where I found these posts by ishbadiddle -- and while he's calling it something else, that looks to be (nearly) exactly what I've been looking for! ➡

    • So many books, so little time In a fortuitous bit of serendipity, I just re-discovered a website I'd found a few months ago, but forgotten to bookmark — All Consuming, which scans recently updated weblogs for Amazon book links, and uses that data to track what books are currently popular in the weblog world. Nifty stuff to explore! ➡
