Rands In Repose (47) permalink
There's a gaping hole in The Taste of the Day. Yes, it's a handy task management system, but it's incomplete.

A few authors tried similar ideas but it didn't work right away. So they gave up. Boingboing is one of the most popular blogs in the world because they never gave up.
