I'm enjoying Demon's Souls to the point that I'm annoyed with myself for spending so much time with Fallout 3. Wish I'd got DS last year.

Top Secret America in cartoon form. It's funny because it's true. Which is, uh, not really funny at all. http://j.mp/9Pp8lE via @normative

I'm really liking Freebase Gridworks: http://bit.ly/bSQ2uo. Anyone know if there's a non-local way to serve up projects with this?

Good piece on anchoring effect: http://bit.ly/a45HKs. This has got to explain some of the hysteresis in stock prices, no? (vs. random walk)

Just ran across this in our nominations database: http://www.thinkgeek.com/interests/dads/d3fe/. Very cool media extender. I kinda want.

I just noticed that Apple owns the trademark "Intrinsity". There you go: official, iron-clad proof.

Watched first episode of "Being Human" last night. First non-awful vampire thing I've seen since "Let The Right One In".

Anyone know the best business card scanning solution for Mac?

.@aaronsw ? RT @normative : Someone should scrape WaPo intel contractor database & xref w/campaign contribs. Dunno why they didn't.

Finally got around to picking up Demon's Souls on PS3. (It's $20 @ BestBuy). Fantastic but difficult RPG.
