Quote of the Day

I was reading my textbook, of all things, today and I found a quote that I wanted to share.

We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it - and stop there; lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove lid. She will never sit down on a hot stove lid again - and this is well; but also she will not sit down on a cold one any more.

- Mark Twain

And I would also love to point out that Writely makes a great ad hoc environment for posting content to my blog when I'm no where near my computer and normal means of doing so.

Yeah, Writely is a great tool. We tell patrons who need to write a paper, but who are not in the lab where they have access to Microsoft Word, to use it for the meantime until they can get into the lab. The internet computers here do not have Microsoft Office on them, so it works out well when our lab is full and people are impatient.

That's a great idea! I like to use it when I start working on something at home for work, or school, or anything else I know I'll need someplace else. It saves me from having to sync files to my flash drive, which I normally end up forgetting anyway :)
