    Google finance kicks butt 

    It matches news articles with the stock, so you can see how one affects the other. The use of Flash is very cool as well.

    Cooking show idea 

    …where the food cooks itself. Insert ingredients here at time X, turn the universal crank another revolution. Repeat N times for each serving. Optimized for pipelining multiple servings…

    I’ll call it… Cooking with RISC.

    Whew 

    I got 96/100 on a project I thought I bombed. Close call… I think the graders were just being nice because I finished the hard part before turning it in incomplete. (I got docked on a smaller part for being late.)

    Emacs is pretty sweet 

    I started copying my resume over from .DOC format to .HTML (perhaps with CSS), and Emacs’s syntax highlighting has showed itself to be better than anything I’ve used before. Why? It doesn’t just highlight syntax, it uses the syntax to appropriately format the content. It’s like a wannabe WYSIWYG editor, but better.
