Before I rush off this weekend to visit my mom in Southern California, I popped into Borders earlier tonight to buy a book for both sides of the dull plane ride. Since the human characters of “Seabiscuit” seemed so interesting, I picked up the large paperback edition of that book. (I chose the larger one because the line spacing of the smaller paperback was too tight for my tastes. Hey, I’m a typography snob.) Like Lay’s potato chips or popcorn, I can’t just eat one book so I decided to also grab Ben Hammersly’s “Content Syndication with RSS.”

During checkout the clerk asked me, “Are you buying the book to read before seeing the movie?” And, of course, I answered, “Yes, although I’m still looking forward to watching RSS on the big screen.”
