My Reading List

Shopping for books? You can compare prices at Chambal.com.

Movie Review Query Engine

All Music Guide

Alachua Audubon Society

The New York Times

And some other news/politics sites.

Sydney Morning Herald

Sometimes Candace and I wish we were back in Australia, where we could visit our wonderful friends at the CMA and the ANU Club for Women.

Herwig Friedl's home page

But Herwig's photos of Florida make me realize that I'm not always seeing what's around me.

Slashdot

Emacs

Support the Free Exchange of Ideas and Content

Read Laurence Lessig, Eben Moglen, and Richard Stallman, and check out The Electronic Frontier Foundation and Creative Commons.

Some Statistics Blogs

Is the academy broken?

An article on grade inflation and a grade inflation web site.
