Windows-to-Linux roadmap: Series overview (at IBM DeveloperWorks)

Worth a look by folks (especially developers, but I think power users would benefit from it as well) considering the move from Windows to Linux.

Guess I didn't need as much sleep as I thought

Went to bed at 11pm because I was starting to fall asleep and figured I needed it. Woke up around 4am and couldn't get back to sleep -- whether this was because I'd actually had enough or because I was thinking (about Mother Hitton's Littul Kittons and its implications for the web, if you must know) I'm not awake enough to tell.

flower_cat woke up somewhere around 4:30, and chaoswolf came downstairs about 5am, looking for something to eat. Since she'd been sleeping since yesterday morning, that's good.

I made extra coffee.

I was googling for "Littul Kittons" (see previous post) and found these:

Excuse me; I have some books to order.
