What I'd love to see is a site like http://weblogs.asp.net, where a whole bunch of people blog, except focused on Delphi and related technologies. I guess such a site would have to be based on an 'apply for membership' or 'by invitation only' basis ... but it would be neat to have a single point of entry for a large group of blogs. Perhaps Borland could throw their hat in the ring? Any chance of some sort of community-driven blogging site run by Borland? Just a thought, anyway.

I can understand an occasional internet article with some interesting opinion. But, this idea of a public daily diary - who has the time to read all this?

FWIW, I've diverted some of my time from reading other newsgroups/websites to reading a few people's blogs. It's not like people are going to read everyone's blogs, and people don't necessarily post daily, either. Quote: Man, there must be some terribly lonely people out there.

Being easily infatuated with my own words, I thought it would be fun to have a blog, but I'm finding that I don't have time to write it very often, in fact I've only written one blog since the introductory blog. And I type pretty fast too. But then, some people find time to write whole books, so I guess there are people at both extremes! <g> Quote: Man, there must be some terribly lonely people out there.

Lately I've been buying Costco's "Beers of the World", which is a case of ten bottles of beer, each a different high quality brand, almost always non-American. I have one beer to go with my supper. One of those cases of ten usually lasts me ten days. They seem to be very good beers and ales.

A guy jumped off lamenting the cancellation of Futurama. I loved it. I swear, I will buy the Complete Simpsons DVD Collection whenever the series finally ends and all the seasons are released on DVD. It would cost, what, something like $200?
