i’m sitting at the vienna international airport and have 3 hours to kill. my flight to moscow is delayed and instead of arriving at 0:45 in the morning, i’m now schedule to land at 3am. what a nightmare!

i really feel bad for the US because, i fear, the worst is yet to come… (and the world will suffer as a consequence)

john gruber’s take on the ipod is once again enlightning and spot on: Daring Fireball: iPod Mania (that’s the only way to counter paul thurrott: showing that his opinion in the past was always wrong…)

besides john’s fabulous articles i really like his site design and will take quite some clues from there…

Why? (go read it, it’s depressing…)
