I love the interweb, part 7,895:  The Lostpedia’s page on The Blast Door. 

The other equation might be Hubble’s constant, which gives the rate of recession of distant astronomical objects per unit distance away, it was the main observation which led to the big bang theory and gives a rough estimate of the age of the universe.

Sometimes it’s fun to be all meta and talk about how Lost is sooo new media; other times it’s fun just to lose yourself in the arcana.  (Note to self:  I need to find someone at ABC, they need to build a Lost Widget.)

Different strokes for different folks:  I’d probably find the Motorola PEBL (Won’t somebody please start using vowels again? Do it for the kids; a generation can’t be raised on consonants alone…) utterly boring.  Proof – I just finished my first week with a new Cingular 8125 (aka the HTC Wizard), and it’s pretty damn great.  It’s about the size of the Treo 650 (without the antenna), has a slideout keyboard, a big touchscreen, wifi, Edge, a 1.3MP camera, an accessible miniSD slot, etc.

Of course, it’s not for everyone:

1. You should not have an allergy to Microsoft products.  That rules out those different folks who think different. Ly.
2. Related to number 1 above, you best be using Exchange, with an IT department (or outsourced provider) who lets you sync over the air with ActiveSync.  (OTA ActiveSync is absolutely brilliant.  Step one:  take phone out of box.  Step two:  configure sync URL, username and password, press sync.  Step three:  enjoy up to date calendar, contacts and inbox.  Forever.)
3. You should have nimble thumbs. 

Note that numbers 2 and 3 describe a nice slice of corporate America that is laying the track for RIM’s gravy train.  Something tells me that ride’s gonna end soon, esp. with the update to Exchange which pushes email proactively to Windows Mobile 5 devices.

So I’m kvetching to a friend in IM how there aren’t really any user-friendly tools out there for feed splicing (and how both the Bloglines and Newsgator APIs should break out of the feed-by-feed mode).  How is this remix cultcha supposed to happen without things that make it easy to remix?

And then literally less than an hour later I find out about the new “share” feature in Google Reader, which will output recent items from a labeled set of feeds (or your starred items) as a styled clip for your site, or as a feed itself.  Voila, user friendly feed splicing.
