    The New York Times "Freakonomics" blog today has the first in what will be regular weekly postings by me about quotations:

    http://freakonomics.blogs.nytimes.com/

    According to Technorati, this is the 63rd most popular blog in the world.

    Shortly the Yale Alumni Magazine will be inaugurating a blog by me on their website, entirely devoted to quotations. The New York Times "Bits" blog had an item about my looking for computer quotations a few days ago:

    http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/03/25/did-bill-gates-really-say-that/#comments

    There are 102 comments posted. One that is of particular interest is #96, which appears to be by Bill Gates (although it could be someone pretending to be Bill Gates).
