Notes from Howard's Sabbatical from Working. The name comes from a 1998 lunch conversation. Someone asked if everything man knew was on the web. I answered "no" and off the top of my head said "Fidel Castro's favorite color". About every 6-12 months I've searched for this. It doesn't show up in the first 50 Google results (this blog is finally first for that search), AskJeeves says it's: red.

The Google Print Issue
Groklaw as a phenomenal summary of the Google Print issue. If you don't know, Google wants to index all the worlds books and make their content searchable online. The Author's Guild has filed a class action suit on behave of 8000 authors, claiming that it would be copyright infringement. Groklaw gives a good summary of the project and of the legal issues involved. Well worth a read.
