Picasso on compensation
From 37signals:
Legend has it that Pablo Picasso was sketching in the park when a bold woman approached him.
"It's you, Picasso, the great artist! Oh, you must sketch my portrait! I insist.”
So Picasso agreed to sketch her. After studying her for a moment, he used a single pencil stroke to create her portrait. He handed the women his work of art.
“It’s perfect!” she gushed. “You managed to capture my essence with one stroke, in one moment. Thank you! How much do I owe you?”
“Five thousand dollars,” the artist replied.
“B-b-but, what?” the woman sputtered. “How could you want so much money for this picture? It only took you a second to draw it!”
To which Picasso responded, “Madame, it took me my entire life.”

This is a very good idea, I hope they keep on developing this project.
Online services have their intentions in the right place, have your data available to you any time on any platform that's got a net connection. However, what happens when that net conneciton disappears or, in our case, Google just up and errors out not allowing you to access your data. This could be a good way to "backup" your appointments if all the bugs get worked out.

I always thought this song was catchy. Ziggy says we've got a 99% chance of still saying "So who is this Gnarls Barkley guy?". And what's with Dennis Hopper and these "underground hit" bands. First Gorillaz, now Gnarls. Or maybe he just has a thing for G's.

OpenWorld Community
Interesting idea, I wonder if anybody's actually going to use it. I've gone ahead and created a new user group for Oracle newbies (like me). I'll see if I can get some people talking.
