Well, I doubt it's new, but it's new to me. You can get a weather forecast for your ZIP code just by typing "weather <your ZIP code>" into Google. So, if you lived in Rocklin, you'd type in "weather 95765", … Continue reading

I just looked at my feed on FeedBurner and noticed that the email/digg/stumble/dotnetkicks icons are broken. Unfortunately, I don't have the source for the "ShareItModule" with me at work, so I will fix that tonight when I get home. My … Continue reading
