Wes' ramblings

Stuff I've found. Stuff I'm thinking. Entries that can't fit into Twitter, and are not coherent enough for Blogger.

A social bookmarking site that stores a copy of the site you bookmark for future reference.  Very cool.

re Mozy

I finished a full backup a couple weeks ago.  It went really smoothly, and subsequent incrementals are really fast.

I need to do a few test restores, before I declare a final verdict, but I think I like the service so far.

re Studio 60

Yes, it’s really canceled.  It went out with a really nice bang. 

That can’t really be said for Fox’s Drive. They have relegated the last two episodes to the web.  Pathetic.

» TaDa List is cool too

I signed up for a Ta Da List yesterday too. It’s my list app on my phone, and it works really well on the desktop too.

Yes, this is where I found out about Backpack. Both are by 37Signals.

» Backpack is cool
I signed up for a Backpack account yesterday to have a secure, flexible place to put stuff that’s accessible from both home and work.  It’s really nice.

I’m listening to it for the first time now; just started track three.  Awesome!  Hopefully, I’ll be able to post a more complete review in the next few days.

Studio 60 is back... and rules!

Just finished watching last week’s episode of Studio 60.  What a show; that’s the way they’re supposed to be.  Good stuff.  Is the show really canceled?
