It's been a while since I posted one of these, here are a few highlights from my Delicious link feed:
- Dave Pollard's process flowchart for blogging [GIF]
- travis poling, the blog - A new blog by Travis, who's taking blogging to a new level
- Bikes as Transportation - A new blog by Mark, locally based but globally appealing:
- Three great local/regional food blogs I've come to know recently: Middle West Meals, Indieats, and Going Local.
- Indianapolis Startup Weekend - anyone want to go start up a tech company together?
- When Gmail Goes Dark - or, "why it will be a long time before I depend on Google Apps for mission critical business tasks"
- Fun with FOIA - scans of various internal forms used by the National Security Agency. I love that stuff.
- ChaCha - human-powered search engine accessible via SMS text message - great for parties.

the story about gmail being down connects well to your post about the pal item's TOS. it's dangerous, yet so simple and natural to slip into dependency on internet apps. half of my life exists on google, one way or another. i guess i'm just trusting that google won't ever use all of the information i have stored through them (gmail, google docs, etc.) unethically. but i already find it creepy that google scans my emails to decide what ads to put in my browser!
