This is a cool way to see who your neighbors are in memespace. Type in a URL and the TGGoogleBrowser will generate a network diagram showing related sites. Google’s definition of a “related” site is, I think, a function of which sites are linked to by other sites in common. It’s a 3-D graph, and you can turn it around in space and drag nodes into different positions. The rest of the diagram slowly follows as you drag and the links seem to be made of rubber bands. Muito cool.

Even Productive People Find Time to Blog
Today’s most surprising discovery was a blog by my newfound favorite writer, Neil Gaiman. He writes books, plays, graphic novels (as in comics for grownups) and goes on grueling book promotion tours and yet still keeps his blog current.
Whattaguy. I’ll bet he never wastes a whole day laptop surfing on the sofa and watching the Food Channel like some Irish-Lithuanian educational technologists I know.
