A Big Pet Peeve
One thing that absolutely drives me nuts is when other blogs, news sites, or other sources of information do not include the year of the entry, or even the entire date itself. What the heck?! Take this for example. I was searching for information about the AA/BA deal and Google gave me this site. Great, except how do I know how old this was? Maybe it was referencing another deal 4 years ago? Ugh. I had to dig into the -trash- comments for a datestamp.
I see this problem strewn everywhere especially with blog posts. Great that you published a few nice posts 3 days ago… or was it 3 days and 3 years? Always frustrates me.
Just Because a Chair Is Expensive Doesn't Make It Good
Jeff Atwood (who I must admit I only really read when someone links to him) wrote an article awhile ago about his thoughts on the chair you use for work. He's a fan of Herman Miller, and for the most part this is rightly deserved. When I worked with Accenture, everyone had Aeron's, and while it is possible to be uncomfortable in them, most of the time I was very happy with it and didn't think anything of it.
