athloi's Journal: Gadgetizing

I'm going to divide all future tech-related articles into two categories:

1. Advances in knowledge.
2. Gadgets and configurations.

I don't think it's unfair to say that the Quantas airline providing inet access article is #2, or all the iPhone articles, or the "I installed Linux on my dead sister's iPod" articles, and so forth.

This bloglet isn't a slam on gadgets, but a reminder to all of us that programming, hacking and being good technical people can easily become absorbed by the quest for knowledge about gadgets and other reconfigurations of extant knowledge.
