Due to a tiny tweak in the layout of Submit Response, you might need to reload the page, and the stylesheet too, depending on browser/platform/prevailing winds. It should look like this screenshot, or similar. In theory, folk using smaller monitors at lower resolutions will be able to read the site more easily, and a couple of invisible-to-most accessibility problems have been fixed.

Matt Jones reveals that all BBC News indices (indexes?) now have RSS feeds. Brilliant! These may be of use: Scottish news, Arts. Now, I wonder when they'll launch telly and radio listings as RSS?

Good WWDC coverage at ext|circ - part one, part two. Safari 1.0 later today. Panther sounds good - Finder completely redesigned ('user-centric' a la iTunes, labels return), interesting improvements to iDisk, iChat goes AV. 64bit G5, will run 32bit apps.

Internet Explorer for the Mac discontinued. Future versions for PC tied into OS updates. Internet now fucked. Sort of.

3DOSX - does what it says on the tin, providing a file system browser that utilizes three dimensions to view directory hierarchies. Pretty, useless.

Carafix - a donateware OS X utility for throttling bandwidth. Handy for controlling bandwidth. Great for eejits like myself who have five filesharing apps running concurrently and find they can no longer surf the interweb.
