My new blog is here

Something that's very, very cool - Azureus SMS. Sends you an SMS when your torrents are done. It's ¤10 for 100 messages. I'm not sure that I'll use it, but it may be useful for some. Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Finally got Azureus working on my Intel Mac. This version seems to be working. Why aren't Azureus distributing a working Intel Mac version on their homepage, I do not know. All I do know is that, compared to Transmission, my torrents are running much quicker (10x improvement). Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Media Matters has ample evidence of Coulter's liesPermanent link to this item in the archive.

Over on YouTube, JonDonnis has lots of great videos of (alleged) psychics and sceptical clips. Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Ophelia: "Humans don't share one big brain, no matter how communitarian they are, and it's not possible to turn all those billions of brains into one big collective shared brain simply by dint of endless repetition of the word 'community.' And a good thing too." Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Good morning, capitalists! Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Milton Friedman's TV series, Free to Choose, is now on Google Video. It's got an introduction from Arnold Schwarznegger. (Via Hit and Run).

Digg in OPML (preview) Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Yesterday, I coded up a new way of browsing digg using Grazr (or OPML browser of your choice - Grazr is good because of the slider view, though).

If you load up http://tools.opiumfield.com/digg/tommorris, you get an OPML file with all the RSS feeds of my digg activity, as well as include links to all my friend's OPML. Graze it.

Here are the known issues: performance degrades for users with more than 15 friends. You'll probably get some odd errors for users with more than 150 friends. Digg could easily remedy this by making an API for access to public user data - currently, I'm having to screen scrape digg to do it. I will also hopefully add caching, so it doesn't hit digg too badly.
