Thanks again for all of your help on writing that letter! I forgot to mention my impressions on Google Docs & Spreadsheets, which I used to compose it. I didn't try the spreadsheet part (except for a minute), but the word processing part is pretty neat. It has some rich-text options (fonts, colors, bullets, etc.), and it keeps a revision history so it's pretty intuitive to see what changes you've made. You can also save in a bunch of different formats. I'd be curious as to how the collaboration works. Anyway it seems more than adequate for something simple like writing a letter.
To make things interesting, I'm going to add another microresolution. I have a World of Warcraft auctioneer price lookup that doesn't work with the new version of Auctioneer. Microresolution: make it work again by next Friday. We'll see if having multiple microresolutions out at the same time is feasible or makes me fail to complete any of them :-)
Current position of my pages in a search for "microresolution" on:
Google: #3!
Yahoo: not present
MSN: #1!!
Ask.com: #6
The main competitors seem to be pages talking about microscopes and such.
Funny quote in this article about the mayor of San Francisco admitting to an affair with his aide's wife:
Tom Abbott, 36, an executive recruiter, said that having an affair with a loyal aide's wife was "a total slimeball move."
"Any guy who puts that much mousse in his hair can't be trusted," Abbott said. "You don't screw over your own boys."
However, Abbott said, he would probably vote for Newsom.

Hmm, I'm still #3 to me, but I am #2 on Google Portugal!

Ha ha! Is Google trying to say something about Portuguese culture?

Your comment about the google recruiter got me thinking, which is always a dangerous thing.

This is a teaser if I've ever seen one. Thinking about what?

Jobs and moving. Come on, nothing major has happened in my life recently!

Hey, babies and the house are pretty major! :P And moving isn't all it's cracked up to be.
