• For all you Mac-oriented folks out there: A new usenet newsreader called Unison. It does for usenet what Acquisition did for gnutella, which is to make it Mac-like.

  One of the big-joy moments of starting to use this software was that I could download an hour's-worth of Duke Ellington on NBC's Big Band Remote in 1953, from alt.binaries.sounds.78rpm-era. At 50kbps. Just by clicking. Clickin' and boppin'.
