eyeout is a search agent tool that monitors RSS. Its also trainable so you can filter at a broad level. I seed a topic with a few keywords and then start giving it feedback, pretty soon I have a feed with boundaries based on my interest. amazing, checkitout at eyeout.com.
world war two pulled us out of the great depression. there were a lot of "broken windows" in germany. its not a falicy, it should be called the broken window phenomenon.
i'm all about trading music, but i'm not all about my mailbox being full of spam. maybe its good to let the control freaks come in and bully us a little, and maybe the spammers a lot.

i used to use absolute telnet. it made me believe in adware. it was a good program and i didnt mind the banners. but there were a couple ads that made it difficult to work. one had a flashing neon background. it was really hard to type in the console while it was flashing. i wrote them and complained... no reply.

this was from people.com today - "Although the secretary declined to identify locations of the troops, Reuters cited defense officials as saying that they were in and near the Persian Gulf and Afghanistan. " - i personally dont need to know this and clearly its in our advantage to limit information like this. its a good thing people magazine has such low distribution in afghanistan.
