I hadn't intended to do another blogpost so soon, but I had insomnia last night. Rather than rattle around in my bed bemoaning insomnia on a night when no one else I know seemed to be online, I thought I'd take the opportunity to finally lay down some belated conference catch-ups, and some related links.

We like a lot of stuff here at Mondo Towers, and today I added a sidebar widget from Amazon, with links to books and films I recommend. In case you're reading this via the feed; it looks like this:
