Harvesting the Web
Early in the mornings of Friday through Sunday I pour a cup of coffee, put my feet up, and harvest the web. I go through my Morning Read (seven sites), NetNewsWire feeds (38 of these), and personal e-mail looking for items of interest.
Items of interest include those that simply strike my fancy or pique my curiosity, or that I think may be useful to me in my day job. I am invoking the SIDAL loop,
and being mindful of the Eighth Law, "Old dogs that don't learn new tricks end up dead dogs."
I am a victum of that desease pointed out by Dorothy Parker in, "The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity."
