This news made my day..

The next set of I Love the 80s specials will be in 3d. From a press release:
“I LOVE THE 80’S: 3D” — PREMIERES OCTOBER 24 – 28, 2005
We’re back, we’re funnier than ever, and because we haven’t run out of
ideas, we’re taking it to the third dimension, with gnarly special effects
that’ll-like-blow your mind! That’s right. Put on your 3D glasses and check
out that chick’s bangs, this is “I Love The 80s: 3D!!!” “I Love the 80’s: 3D”
brings you a skewed view of the music, movies, TV shows, fashions, fads, and
trends that defined pop culture during every year of the decade. From Oak
Ridge Boys to Fine Young Cannibals, Jheri-curl to Rat tails, Cannonball Run to
Steel Magnolias. The tearjerkers … the tacky … and everything in between.
It’s 80’s-style technology with a 21st century twist. With all your favorite
comics, rock stars and celebs coming together to wax poetic about the
essential ’80s experience, viewers will be bombarded with every aspect of ’80s
pop culture in amazing 3D.

Disposable PDA for the quasi-Luddite

PocketMod

PocketMod is a free online Flash app that prints a series of personal organizer templates to a single sheet of paper that you cut and fold into a multipage mini-book for your pocket. My assumption was that you would type in your appointments, contacts, to-do lists, or better yet, import data from a PIM like Outlook or Palm Desktop.

Not so. All it does is print out blank templates. You have to provide the data by pen. Still, it’s only in beta, so there’s hope.
