Cleaning out my tabs…
- KM, what have we delivered. – a fast overview of the stuff KM has done, and how well it has worked.
- Woody – A way of doing forms in Cocoon.
- SkEdit – cute HTML editor for OS X. I need to try it one of these days.
- Strange Attractors – Jeff Nichols discovers a hidden talent.

There is hope in Iraq.
