1Password on sale
I just got an email about a one day sale on 1Password that is a pretty good deal - over 40% off for today only:
Hello everyone, I am not sure if you remember but in case you didn't know -- today is my birthday! It has become a tradition and to stay true to our roots today together with MacZOT we are holding a huge 1-day sale on all our products. If you do not own a copy of 1Password or know someone who needs it then today is the best day to buy it: http://agilefolks.com/s/15083762e I spend most of my waking hours working on and discussing 1Password, so I want you to be part of the festivities! Please enjoy some cake and ice cream with me and enjoy the bargain price too! Cheers! --Dave Teare Now 33-year old Co-author of 1Password Everyone is Switching to Mac! http://switchersblog.comI've been meaning to write about 1Password. I've been using it for a few months and it is a really great application. The basic idea is this: each and every website gets its own strong password (say 20 random characters with numbers and punctuation). So now A ) you aren't using weak dictionary passwords on Amazon or your bank or whatever and B ) if scrubsite.com has their passwords hacked it's not the same password as your Amazon 1-Click. There are toolbars for each of the major browsers to easily input your saved passwords, and the whole shebang is locked in an OS X keychain, behind a single version. A native iPhone version is promised, but even now there's a trick with a Javascript bookmarklet that lets you store the passwords on your iPhone as well. I highly recommend 1Password. It does all that password security that you know you *should* do, but can't really bother with in real life. If you don't have it and you're a Mac user, think seriously about taking advantage of this sale!

A Lost summary that everyone can stand behind
If you had told me somebody could sum up three and a half seasons of Lost in two minutes, eight seconds I would have told you that you're crazy. And yet:

TweetCloud Revisited
Since that TweetCloud site I linked to is a bit intermittent I grabbed a screenshot.

Does anybody use the "combo feed"?
The blog provides three feeds, at least in theory. There is the main "Entries" feed, the "Comments" feed, and then a third feed that is supposed to provide Entries and Comments jammed into a single feed.
That third feed has been broken for a couple of months now (since my last Wordpress upgrade). It's working again sort of, but I don't think it lists comments anymore (so it's basically a duplicate of the Entries feed.) The first two feeds are provided in a "stock" Wordpress install. The third I had hacked together. I'm not sure why it's not working now, but I'm also sort of thinking "Well if nobody is using it then I'm just going to drop it."
So that's the question. Is there anybody using the Combo Entries+Comments feed? If there is, I can certainly make it work right again. But if nobody is using it, then I'm going to drop it as one less thing to worry about.
