Oh, Word. Why must “Comment” be the only noun here that has an adjective before it? I keep staring at this menu looking for “Comment” only to give up and go to the Review tab of the ribbon.
Of course, I wouldn’t have to worry about digging through these menus if adding a comment was in right-click context menu.

Dear M$,
Not until IE9 is out of beta and you force everyone to upgrade it will I forgive you, since my wonderful portfolio CSS is still wonky in IE8. What did the box model ever do to you anyway?
Hugs and kisses,
Jamie

New favorite commercial.

Wondering whether they’ll actually live up to that claim though…a smartphone that helps you limit engagement? Sounds counterintuitive and/or too good to be true.

Courier: First Details of Microsoft's Secret Tablet

Check out the video, it looks fairly sweet. My biggest question about a multitouch tablet with stylus is whether resting your hand on it when you write causes any trouble…I’d imagine they considered that, but I’m wondering how they’d pull it off.

Also, I hate when people rag on tablets for having styluses. What else are you supposed to use to write? I’m curious to see what Apple ends up doing—if they stick with the touch keyboard or concede to those of us who want to scrawl and doodle on a tablet with something more precise than a fingertip.
