Poking around Dreamhost’s web configuraiton panel, I saw there was a one-click option to upgrade my wordpress install. So I tried it. And 5 minutes later, now I’m using Wordpress 2.0.2. Well that went extremely smoothly.

Qwerter’s Clinic (Japanese). A keyboard fan-site with lots of great information if you can read
it. Of particular interest is this dissection of different Cherry switches.

I’ve noticed that, while off white on dark grey looks fine for non-antialiased text, for anti-aliased test, dark on light seems better than light on dark. Also “boldness” is much more apparent […]
Jairam, talking about Modest Yahoo, “you know he went to Israel, and got into all that, what’s that thing, that Jewism stuff.” Well, it was something along those lines.
Link. Mostly a standard review. They tested themselves to see if and how much their typing rate would improve, and they got roughtly a 10% increase over a week or so.
Couple mistakes from their article:
IBM Model M keyboards and Das Keyboard II have very different switches. The former has buckling springs with a membrane switch, […]
