0xDECAFBAD Bucket

Someday, I'm going to explain what this bucket is about. Prerequisite to that is figuring out what it's about. A few quick notions, though:

• For me, at least, perceptible interface + laziness threshold = weblog silence

• Dave Winer's OPML Editor has been the only tool in recent memory to keep me publishing thoughts for any respectable stretch.

• My favorite word processor, once upon a time, was WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS.

  • I always did love "Reveal Codes"

  • No me gusta mucho el WYSIWYG.

I keep thinking I want a Psion PDA. They seem to have nice workable keyboards. I miss my 8086 palmtop with Microsoft Works and a sunlight-viewable greyscale screen.

• This ties into my persistent Golden Age vision of writing at a picnic table in the sun, which I haven't done since college. That palmtop was my enabler then.

Something else I want to do things with:

• Google App Engine

Comments were working in Firefox. Just checked in Safari and found things broken there. Can't be bothered to try MSIE yet.

To emphasize the notional units here, I've tried especially styling first-level bullets. I can't remember if MSIE is happy with this particular CSS selector yet. If not, tough.

Tagging per bullet or line in this thing would be interesting at some point, too.

• I'd like to be able to search for and possibly re-aggregate bullets by tag.
