When January comes around and developers can finally start creating authorized apps for this new platform, I'd like to see a few things (I'm a touch user, so some of these things may already be available on the iPhone - but ATT coverage sucks around me, so I refuse to get an iPhone).
-stickes, I just want a quick place I can time notes and reminders to myself
-a word game, like TextTwist or WEBoggle
-a Flash plugin (obviously)
-a program that helps Safari remember passwords
I'll add to this...

a posting, not a blog
A blog entry is not, in and of itself, a blog. A blog is the entire thing, a post is one entry in the blog.
OK, think of it as a diary. The diary is the entire book - it is the blog. Each day is a entry - it is a post.
I'm so tired of people posting a new "blog" when they just mean a new entry ON their blog.

where do the real issues go?
From an NYT Fredman editorial:
“What happened to that Arctic story, Dad?” my daughter asked me. How could the news media just report one day that the Arctic ice was melting far faster than any models predicted “and then the story just disappeared?” Why weren’t any of the candidates talking about it? Didn’t they understand: this has become the big issue on campuses?
No, they don’t seem to understand. They seem to be too busy raising money or buying votes with subsidies for ethanol farmers in Iowa. The candidates could actually use a good kick in the pants on this point. But where is it going to come from?
