Energy Bill May Make Americans Late

Category : Post from around the Net

This could cause some major issues with lots of devices!! I can’t believe that there isn’t more news about this bill.

With the upcoming change to how the United States will calculate Daylight Saving Time (DST), users of digital calendars may find themselves arriving late for appointments. The Energy Policy Act of 2005, expected to be signed into law today, will cause unexpected havoc for electronic calendars, including those in PCs, handheld computers, and even personal digital recorders. Who would have thought?

Here’s a Feedster like site for everyone that keeps a list of their currently reading books.

{Blogged books} All Consuming is an aggregation Web site that will
let you know what the weblog community is reading or discussing.
If you have a weblog, there is a “Currently Reading” JavaScript
include to put on your Web site to feature the most recently
updated item from your “currently reading” list and create a feed
of your favorite books. The hottest book mentioned on weblogs is
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, which is what I’m
currently reading. Yes, this muggle has fallen into the Harry
Pottermania trap, and relishes the series. [Meryl] [Lockergnome Windows Daily]
