wikidPad

I'd just like to take time out to recommend wikidPad. I've registered it, and it keeps getting better. Jason has just released version 1.0.6.

I now have somewhere to keep draft weblog posts, as well as just about anything else I need.

• The new "big lie" (repeat something enough times and people will believe it) seems to be about the "imminent threat" that Iraq was. The administration clearly stated that Iraq wasn't an "imminent threat", yet people keep parroting the line.
