Here's yet another selection of interesting links from around the internet. As always, I welcome your thoughts and your feedback.

And finally, one quick update for any of you who read blogs via Bloglines. As of November 1st, Bloglines is shutting down (bugger!). If you're looking good substitute, try Google Reader. It's extremely easy to port over all your feeds, and the interface is simple and works quite well.
