I went ice skating for the first time in my life today and I only fell once. Of course, if you aren't falling then you really aren't trying. Next time I plan on falling a lot.

I'm looking for a good web based organizer. Does anybody have any suggestions? I may just have to bite the bullet and use my s710a and Outlook, but I'd rather not. Anybody ever tried this service with its incredibly long page title?

Scientists untangle Inca number-strings

This is some pretty cool news for a couple of reasons:
Scientists untangle Inca number-strings.
It's a reminder that the Incans ruled a fairly large empire without the aid of the wheel or writing. Plus, Scrabble brand word game players will love the mention of "khipu", hopefully that'll soon the join word list alongside "quipu."

Also, I'm wondering if these two pieces of information:

Khipus encode numbers as knots in strings hanging from a cord. The closer a knot is to the cord, the higher its value, just as the number 1 can denote 1, 10, or 100 depending on its position.

Numerical value also depends on a knot's shape. Single overhand knots encode tens, hundreds or thousands. Single knots represent ones, and long knots with between 2 and 9 turns encode the numbers 2 to 9.

can be related to Benford's Law at all. I don't see one that really jumps out right now though.

Flickr interestingness

Grand Canyon

Flickr has updated their Everyone's photo section. It's now called Explore and that page has a subset called Flickr interestingness where they rank each photo's "interestingness" based on clickthroughs, links, favorites, tags, comments, and page views as far as I can tell. Very very cool. They also give each user a list of their Most interesting fotos. This one of the Grand Canyon is my most interesting photos, mostly from the six people who have favorited it. Watch out clicking those links, you are going to see some amazing photos.
