I'm off to Chicago to support the Bears in their quest for Superbowl glory. With any luck, the Bears will take the Colts down to Chinatown. I'm lucky that I found a great fare on kayak. For less than $300 bucks, I can fly direct from SFO to Ohare and not really miss any work either. That was the clincher for making the trip.
Go Bears!
Netflix just announced a new program called Watch Now. When asked whether Netflix is targeting multiple screens, Founder and CEO Reed Hastings said "every internet connected screen ... from cell phones, to laptops, to wifi plasma screens."

Touring RHEL 5 Beta 1: New features make upgrades tempting
Nice article from Curtis Smith. I agree with most of his points even though I find his analysis a bit conservative.

Not since the New York Cosmos of old has a move like this impacted soccer in the US so profoundly.
