 Story on City Pages' Babelogue.

 This week I'm trading in the Nokia 9290 (which never caught on like it should have) for a new Samsung I-700 (which has everything I want in a pda-phone except WiFi). It's no Matrix Phone, but this boy needs a new toy.

 Saddam's kinky fantasy art.

 Steven Johnson's contribution on blogging to the Rem Koolhaus-curated Wired.
