I’m posting this entry through my MSN Messenger account via the IMified service (see http://www.imified.com/index.htm). They offer a lot of widgets that allow you to access functionality from many of your online services by using your IM client. Very cool, but isn’t this old school terminal window interfaces all over again?

I’m always critical of “custom” signs in the workplace–you know, the ones produced by the staff in a business to address the seemingly pressing needs at the time. They include things like:
- Out of Order
- Cash only please, and
- Out for lunch, back at 1PM
They seem to always be signed by the mysterious “MGMT” character (whom I’ve never met personally).
Well, this sign actually contained one very important piece of information–a URL! The web page cited is from the FDA’s official website and contains information about the FDA’s dog food recall. Note the presence of hand-scrawled messages at the bottom of the sign. This is all-too-typical of “custom” signs. The world will never learn!
