org mode reading rss
I also have a script to sync my Google calendar with emacs' diary.

Python + emacs + Android
I'm writing Python in emacs and using just C-c C-c (interpret buffer) to execute it instantly on my phone.
I can hardly see through tears of joy.

Code in the cloud
I wasn't particularly bothered by Mozilla's Bespin until I read that it's extensible and inspired by emacs. And some other, rather evil editor. Now I just need to wait 20 years and It will be surely be perfect.

3rd of February is new phone day
And look: Processing for android. I'm now about as excited as I used to get just before Christmas at age 15. I mean 7.

Are you knowledge-hungry?
It looks like there's proof that learning because you want to know something is much better than learning because you want to pass a test. http://blog.newsweek.com/blogs/nurtureshock/archive/2009/12/15/this-is-your-brain-on-a-test.aspx. More reason than ever to find interesting exercises then, I suppose.

DropBox
I love dropbox. It keeps me in sync across multiple machines and multiple operating systems. If you sign up, I can love it even more thanks to the free space I'll get when you do.
