Good case study (?) of how to get small groups collaborating and driving innovation. I can’t see us transferring ITW to a beach, though.

Off skiing, so these will have to wait until next week:
If only I had known before I installed Vista that I could massively reduce its footprint. Ach well.
Very neat algorithm to extrapolate 2D to 3D. Take a few pictures, a reverse panorama, if you like, and you have a pretty good 3D model.

And you will most likely have to do this temporary work around to access data for backup. [Update: make sure you use a non-administrator account to do the ExMerging]
Lots of good things on how to manage and facilitate communities with porous boundaries.
