Raised beds, ready for planting.
And the end.
Dorothy likes to do whatever her big brother did or is doing. But today she has the first bath.
So of course, she asks “Will Malcolm have any bath toys?”
I eventually convinced her that we can’t know the future, and she elected to choose some toys.
I only have a few, and it’s not an ornamental, but still: Cherry Blossoms!
Twenty Years Ago Today the World Wide Web Went Public
Twenty years ago today, something happened that changed the digital world forever: CERN published a statement that made the technology behind the World Wide Web available to use, by anybody, on a royalty free basis.
That decision, pushed forward by Sir Tim Berners-Lee, transformed the internet, making it a place where we can all freely share anything and everything—from social media updates, through streamed music, to YouTube videos of cats. It has fundamentally shaped the way we communicate.
To celebrate the momentous occasion of 20 years ago, CERN—the same guys behind all those experiments at the Large Hadron Collider—has republished its very first website at its original URL. It’s not much to look at—but it’s a fine reminder of just how much the web has changed in the past twenty years.
In fact, the republishing of that site is part of a broader project to excavate and preserve a whole host of digital gems that remain from the inception of the web. You can go read a lot more about the project over on CERN’s site.

This puts me at 2-for-2 on “stuff my family doesn’t care about” for the day, but - Nathan, if you haven’t seen this single episode, you really should.

FLipside At Five (Remix: Nikki Williams' "Glowing" from 5:50 to 9:40)
Recent DJ Flipside live stream. I love his mix of Nikki Williams’ “Glowing” from 5:50 through 9:40, although the whole set is good.
I’ve started a music blog: http://highlysyntheticsonority.tumblr.com .
It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, so I won’t mention it much. But yesterday it involved a funny story at least.
As I was doing research and listening to DJ Flipside, Malcolm informed me that it wasn’t music.
Me: “I’m sure a lot of people agree with you on that.”
Malcolm: “If it doesn’t have any words, it’s not music. It’s just a song.”
So Bach, Chopin, Flipside - I feel a bit better about my musical choices now :) .
