The program I mentioned yesterday, "Zoe", looks pretty cool, but I just realized this morning that it would probably be useless for me. Why? I read all my own email off of my own mail server. All my filtering happens on the server and I use IMAP to get at it. Last I checked, POP doesn't support it. Companies need to start looking at support of things like IMAP when doing email products. I could very much see the day when one of the appliances in your home is a server that you toss in the closet and then access remotely.

Dave had two links I found pretty interesting yesterday. The first was an essay by Meg Hourihan about using personas in the development process. The second was a article about people hacking various p2p software and the reactions of the companies who put out the software. There's an interesting relationship between these two articles. They both have to do with knowing who your customers are and what they want (or don't want).

Radio geekage - That link to my past post about Zoe was my first time trying out the shortcut feature in Radio. It's cool!
