I was reading through a comment on Slashdot yesterday when I found a link to an essay Neal Stephenson had written about Operating Systems. I remember seeing this before but never got around to reading it. I have just started but so far it’s a pretty good read!

Dan Brown of Boxes and Arrows has a great essay up regarding the Information Architecture of Email. He gives a good overview of what google did differently, and how it changes the way you work with email.

Gmail revealed to me my email behavior – something I hadn’t previously given much thought. By making certain things easier (and others more difficult), Gmail showed me how “typical” email applications weren’t necessarily designed according to how I used them.

I just wish a desktop email client (Like ximian Evolution) would incorporate some of the features google did.

I find the ongoing SCO vs. Linux battle rather interesting. Today several sights have started to leak photos of some of the alleged copied code found in Linux. Here’s a good summary of what’s wrong with the “code SCO alleges was stolen from them”:http://lwn.net/Articles/45019/. The short answer is SCO already released the code under an Open Source License, which means it was legally copied. That kind o explains why they won’t tell the world what was ’stolen’.
