Windows Vista Delayed Until January 2007 ★: What’s another month or two at this point? It was originally slated to ship in 2004, right?
Poor Pickers Proliferate ★: John Siracusa on the Dashboard widget dock.
CNet Interview With Bud Tribble on Apple’s Security Updates ★: CNet’s headline is somewhat slanted: “Tribble on Apple’s Security Troubles”. Not sure if they’re just trying to be cute with the “Tribble/trouble” alliteration, or if they’re just trying to throw fuel on the fire. I think by any objective standard, Apple has surprising few security “troubles”.
MoRU ★: $10 advanced Spotlight search utility. Looks intriguing.
Delicious Finally Supports Private Bookmarks ★: It’s a beta feature that you have to turn on in the Settings panel. (Via Andy Baio.)
Google Finance ★: Very nice stock info app from Google. Similar to how you can use click-and-drag to scroll around Google Maps, you can use click-and-drag to scroll their stock charts. (Their charts are done in Flash, not Ajax, so technically it’s quite different, but the effect is similar.)
The Sun Doesn’t Shine on Me ★: Joyent CTO Jason Hoffman on the problems he’s had trying to buy servers from Sun:

More than once though, the Sun people did suggest I just buy the servers off the web site. “OK,” I said, “and what credit card should I put that $220,000 order on?”. “You can put in multiple orders over a few days”, he suggested. “OK… thanks! I’ll try that,” I said while hanging up the phone.
