Big Cat Scripts Plugin Now Universal ★: I’ve been using Big Cat Scripts ever since Brent released it; it’s like a slimmed down version of FinderPop for Mac OS X. (Of course, Turly O’Connor is now working on a Mac OS X version of FinderPop…)
Flaming ★: I have apparently changed the name of my web site — search for “Gruber” in the text of this article by InformationWeek’s Alice LaPlante.
NetNewsWire Lite 2.1 ★: Additions include printing, Delicious bookmark posting, and NewsGator synching.
Roger Ebert on ‘The Shining’ ★: Roger Ebert writes about Kubrick’s The Shining for his Great Movies series:

The one observer who seems trustworthy at all times is Dick Hallorann, but his usefulness ends soon after his midwinter return to the hotel. That leaves us with a closed-room mystery: In a snowbound hotel, three people descend into versions of madness or psychic terror, and we cannot depend on any of them for an objective view of what happens. It is this elusive open-endedness that makes Kubrick’s film so strangely disturbing.
