    A game of tag, tag, tag, ... nutrition and special experiences, finetuning your blog, training and some design for good measure.

    I recommended NutritionData before but they got even better: Now you can create an account and store your foods and recipes in the pantry.

    Rituals equal success, denial notwithstanding. Here is why --

    As a social outcast you're not going to be successful in business either.

    Get yourself or your loved ones an experience you -- or they -- are not going to forget too soon. Some airborne experiences anyone? Taken randomly from my wishlist --

    Blogcare, always tweak, measure and improve --

    For those among you writing their own HTML, here is a funny line from this week's game of tag -- <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/tag" rel="tag">tag</a>. Nevermind.

    To simplify both the user experience and to declutter the site from subscription and bookmarking options, I switched to iFeedReaders saving some valuable real estate on each page --

    ... one central place to send your feed and have all the subscription services coded and ready to go.

    Along the same lines and implemented here for evaluation, Darren Rowse writes about using bylines on blogs --

    ... one thing I suggested was to move his byline (his name) from the bottom of each post (where it was very small and buried among other details) to the top, just under the post title where it was more prominent.

    Dear Santa Brin... What we want from Google this Christmas: 15 features and improvements Pandia wants from Google this Xmas. and Matt Cutts' comments.

    Via del.icio.us/popular --

    The list of paradoxes; food for thought --

    Note that many of the listed paradoxes have a clear resolution once the reason behind the paradox is understood.

    As always... amazing: Industrial Light & Magic presents the Show: Pirates of the Caribbean 2.

    Take a look at the Task Analysis Grid, an alternative to requirement documents --

    One of the greatest challenges we face in the design field is communicating design decisions to other stakeholders...

    Straight out of some mad-science lab: The Out-of-This-World Monsterpod --

    ... the coolest freaking, gravity-defying, mind-boggling tripod ever created! Monsterpod is a Viscoelastic Polymer-based tripod that's the stuff of science fiction. This marvel sticks to and peels right off just about anything.

    Happy Chanukah. To your excellent life.
