Another Google 20% project rears its head. Moderator could help a group of people (say, public at a school board meeting) select the best questions to present. A nifty idea, and an interesting expression of faith in the wisdom of crowds. Still, I wonder how many people at the school board meeting have a computer, and of those that do, who has an internet connection?

This will be a fun site to come back to on election night. Daily Kos is working up an interactive election map that is looking pretty awesome.

Need a calendar for planning purposes? Consider basing it on the compact calendar template David Seah created. This looks like a great way to fit a year onto a page, with plenty of room to describe events.

Nathaniel and I had fun geocaching a few weeks back on a field trip to Fort Snelling State Park. Mary’s new iPhone made for a great geocaching tool.

Google announces that it can now sync with Apple’s iCal, without any third party software. I’ll have to look into this more closely and see if it may solve Mary’s frustrations with our half-adoption of Google Calendar. (Thanks, lifehacker.)

I’ve been looking for this for a long time. I hope I remember to use it when the need arises. Have you ever been stumped by a drive you just cannot eject because it is “in use?” You’d be happy to stop the “use” buy you have no idea where it is coming from? Then “What’s Keeping Me?” may be what you need.
