RIP Jef Raskin
I was very sad to hear yesterday that Jef Raskin had died at the age of 61. He was a true renaissance man and designed the first Apple Macintosh. I only found out about him when I wondered who had come up with drag-n-drop. More about Jef here:

Some time this year, his final piece of software development will be released. Called Archy, the software is intended to be "different". In other words, it does not work like Windows and other similar environments. How's that then? Should be interesting
Finally - what an amazing CV:

If I've posted some code above, you might think it looks a bit simplistic. It might be. I'd rather people tried the next step themselves rather than getting a full solution on a plate. That way they learn more!
