Wiki as lab notebook?
Lisa Dusseault has been keeping at least a piece of her engineering notebook online on the OSAF wiki. This has turned out to be pretty useful to me in keeping up with what she's thinking about. I've been doing this on paper, and I started keeping bookmarks in del.icio.us. Today I decided that I was going to try a wiki notebook. I was really tempted to just do this here in the blog, but that would probably result in subjecting people to a spew of ill formed thoughts and random links, without sufficient context. I thought about asking for a blog off of blogs.osafoundation.org, but I decided to go the wiki route for now. We'll see how this works. Familiar facilities that I'll have to do with out (at least temporarily) are search (in the process of being fixed) and categorization -- what does that even mean on a Wiki. I've very mixed feelings about Wikis, so I'm not sure how long this will go before I get frustrated with it. This would be a perfect application for Chandler itself, if it were ready. Just one more motivation to work to get done so I can eat the dogfood. In the meantime, if you are interested in half baked ramblings....

Coming soon... DaddyCon, er BloggerCon
The other reason that it's conference week around here is that Julie is leaving early tomorrow for BloggerCon II. I'll be holding down the fort at home, a reversal of our usual conference situation. So while she's meeting folks at BloggerCon, I'll get the chance to spend a lot of time with our girls. While she treats you to her thoughts on the conference, I'll treat you to my adventures with the girls.

In honor of Tax day
Back when we lived on the East Coast, we had a friend who though that people would pay more attention to the issue of taxes if they actually had to write a check for the amount of their taxes every month instead of having them autodeducted from their paychecks. I think of him every year on this particular day.

We even had an income tax digression at the Bainbridge Island Geeks meeting...

At least TaxCut got our taxes to Uncle Sam on time.
