I loved this design. Easy to hold in your hand. Rounded, cute and cuddly. And, the wheel was such a clever interface choice. By comparison, today's iPod feels like a waify supermodel to me.

Nature, however, provides a very unique academic service: they can give you a "no" within two weeks. This is light-speed in academic publishing. Most ACM conferences take 4 months to return an answer. Journals in other fields can take years

If you have the time and interest, check out The Wealth of Networks by Yochai Benkler. It's a much better and thoughtful piece—and of course, much longer.

This is why I like to walk to work. It's not possible for everyone; I understand. If you can do it, and don't bring along any devices, you have forced yourself into thinking time. This is usually when I have my best ideas.

I find myself longing for less clever spam filters. Remember the good old days when you could claim that your spam filter ate someone's email? Ah, plausible deniability …
