    I've been looking for something to add to my new site, to fill out the page with a little more content, but haven't really come up with much yet. Today, I was thinking of putting a Weather Pixie on the sidebar, but after looking through the available artwork for it, none of them seem to really match the style I want to have on the site. Ideally, I'd like to be able to use the Tango weather icons, or draw up some awesome ninja monkey weather icons, and not have to sign a blood contract with Weather.com or someone, to be able to have the weather data on my site. Also, avoiding a relational database to cache the little bit of data there is, would also be a good thing. If anyone knows of any good little PHP or PERL scripts for this, please let me know.

    So, having seen J5's latest blog entry, I felt a bit inspired to look into doing something I had previously been thinking of doing for a while now. That is, of course, writing a book myself. Particularly on the subjects of usability and design, in a general sense. I'll probably end up with an outline sometime this weekend, and should have an entire book written a month or so later.

I TOLD EVERYONE WE SHOULD HAVE A WITCH-HUNT, BUT THEY WANTED TO HAVE A GOOD OLD-FASHIONED BOOK BURNING INSTEAD! --Pokey
