Morning Coffee is a Firefox Add-on which allows you to set up groups of tabs that can be opened all at once. This is particularly good for those sites which change fairly often, and resolutely refuse to add an RSS feed.

Bloggies
Not only is it fun to vote for the 2008 Bloggies, it is a good way to find web logs you may have missed.
Thumb Thing
I want a Thumb Thing. And it’s not even expensive.
Spice Rack
And here I thought I was compulsive about trying to keep my spice rack in alphabetical order. v a u g h n a u s t i n takes it to a whole new level. (Which brings back the memory of the time my sister visited, and decided to do me a favor by organizing my spice rack. As she was lining the bottles up by size, type of container, and manufacturer, she failed to notice that they were already in alphabetical order. Thanks, sis.)
Bubble Rings
People blow smoke rings: Dolphins blow Bubble Rings. (via Pharyngula.)
Alpenglow on Winter HIlls
You know it has been cold….
when 18F and no wind seems pleasant.
National Do Not Call Registry
At work, three of our four incoming lines were formerly residential lines, and we have become accustomed to two or three telephone solicitations per line per day, usually robocalls. Even when one just ignores the line because it isn’t the main number, it is still very annoying and a break in one’s concentration.
Tuesday, I finally took the time to enter the three lines into the National Do Not Call Registry. I didn’t expect to see any effect for the month or so that the law allows the telemarketers to scrub their lists, but today we had just one non-legitimate call. I’ll be very interested to see if this is just a fluke.
Google Themes
Google now has a themes gallery for those who personalize their google home page. The gallery holds both Google created themes and some created by other people. I like the one of the world map with the current area illuminated by the sun.
The Game of Life
Play Cellular Automata Blue Cells, also known as the Game of Life.
