Longhorn UI Cruft

If these screenshots are accurate, Windows Longhorn is well on its way to being the ugliest, most crufty version of Windows yet.

Edward Tufte has this bit where he rants about the operating system's administrative clutter taking over the interface. With Windows, it's just getting worse and worse.

DU funny

I don't know why, but I read the politics forum at Democratic Underground.

Today, I read a great post: "I think a Kucinich/Moseley-Braun team would be the ticket!" Before you can say "what planet are you living on?", the second poster in the thread replies: "I'm sure they'd find a few extra states for us to lose, 50 would not be enough".

Heh.
