Paris, Je T’Aime •  Tuesday, May 22, 2007

I’m adding this to the list of films I want to see this summer (I add a few pages to the list every day).

From Apple’s trailer listing:

Celebrated directors from around the world, including the Coen Brothers, Gus Van Sant, Gurinder Chadha, Wes Craven, Walter Salles, Alexander Payne and Olivier Assayas, have come together to portray Paris in a way never before imagined. Made by a team of contributors as cosmopolitan as the city itself, this portrait of the city is as diverse as its creators’ backgrounds and nationalities. With each director telling the story of an unusual encounter in one of the city’s neighborhoods, the vignettes go beyond the ‘postcard’ view of Paris to portray aspects of the city rarely seen on the big screen.

The Spam Problem (Akismet, what’s up?) •  Tuesday, May 22, 2007

Scoble has been posting about spam lately. I haven’t noticed the problem so much until I log in here. I’m having a lot of comments (they’re yours, ntay) getting stuck in the moderation phase. I’m curious what’s causing this. Akismet - don’t let me down.

Also, I would very much like to get Mint. So I will be installing this button in the sidebar:

Mint | Free, Simple Personal Finance Software

That is all.
