While I was knocked flat out most of the weekend by a nasty flu, I still managed to digitize and upload the audio transcript of my talk last month about making better Web sites. If you're interested in hearing it, have an hour and a half to spare to listen, and don't mind downloading three MP3 files that total 13 MB in size, give it a listen.

On another note, my fever peaked at 38.7° C (101.6° F) on Saturday -- 1.7° C above normal. Many estimates of the effects of global climate change claim that worldwide temperatures will rise, on average, at least 1.5° C because of greenhouse gas emissions. It may be a crappy analogy, but if the effects on our climate and various ecosystems are anything like the effects on my body from that kind of temperature rise, we're in trouble.
