RankRange 
 Since noticing my Google PageRank having dropped to 6/10, I've watched it fluctuate between there and 8/10 in the days since. Makes me wonder what the point is.
 Along similar lines, search results for my name have ranged between one and ten million. Kinda meaningless, no? Especially when I'd like to see the 745,612th result. (You can only dig a few hundred down.)
 What I'd love to get, and would be willing to pay for, is the ability really dig down into results, and not just with "advanced" searches. I'd like to look at stats. Trends. Who has linked most, and to what. And not just for this blog, but for any site on the Web.
 I'd like APIs that research tools could hook into. I'd like to see history, and not just what's current.
 But I doubt that will sell advertising, so I also doubt we'll ever see it.
 Which means there's room for competitors to step in here.
 
Duh redux 
 Last time I missed a plane was here at SFO, and it severely effed up a trip to Copenhagen. That was on May 5th of this year. I wrote most of this piece while I was killing nine hours in the very seat where my ass now reposes, in the United Red Carpet Club.
 Anyway, I just missed my connecting flight to Santa Barbara. I was here on time, just as I was in May. And I thought I had more time, just as I did in May. On this occasion, however, I was right there at Gate 76B, having a cappuchino at the little cafe about 50 feet away, watching the activity at the counter, awaiting signs that they were loading the plane.
 Then the flight information on the screen behind the counter went blank. The plane had loaded while I sat there, and the door was closed. I ran over to the gate and saw the plane already taxiing out to the runway.
 You'd think, huh? After flying over a hundred thousand miles this year alone, you'd expect that I'd be on top of stuff like this.
 Well, no.
 So I went back and got myself put on the next flight to Santa Barbara, and with a better seat, too. Then I grabbed a nice late breakfast of huevos rancheros at the food court, read the paper, came back over here and started getting work done.
 Not so bad after all.
 
On the sky today 
 Flying back home to Santa Barbara from Boston this morning, via San Francisco.
 Once again I'm glad that I left early enough to find my way to Logan Airport after being pushed off the highway and forced to find an ALT ROUTE, as the temporary signs advise, since the direct marked route was closed.
 Boston. Whaddaya gonna do?
 See ya on the Left Coast.
