Fitting Slashdot Into Your Schedule

Well Subsume Technologies has just announced a cool new way to do it: wCal. You can subscribe to frequently updated calendars that are headlines of (hopefully a growing number of) web sites, including a constant-refresh-ending Slashdot: Apple calendar (the press release has the subscribe link)." I first heard of this idea from Morbus Iff back on Sept. 11, and am still not convinced of the utility, but it's an interesting idea. Maybe it will catch on.

    What a fucking idiot. Yes, let's give everyone guns! What a brilliant idea. We should all walk around with sidearms. Then when someone commits a crime we can ALL be the law and start shooting. Oh no, that wouldn't increase the number of "victims".

    Oh yes, we'd much rather be like Australia. Let's take away everyone's guns (and while we're at it take away their rights). Now that only criminals have guns, Australia's crime rate has soured.
