Here’s an idea of a blog viewer bookmarks. This will hold the place of someone viewing a person’s blog.

When you click on the link, the script sends a cookie to the person viewing the blog. This cookie contains a #name with the exact location of where the viewer clicked. The next time the viewer goes to this page, a script reads the cookie and jumps down to the appropriate place in the blog.
This kind of bookmarking is most appropriate for blogs that get very long. For instance, someone that clears their blog once a month (like me)
Simple and elegant. Now somebody write it! All I ask for is an “Original concept” byline.

My senator wrote back to me today (via email) about how he’s co-sponsoring federal anti-spam legislation:
Dear Mr. Sonko,
Thank you for contacting me about spam. I appreciate hearing from you on this issue.
The growth of the Internet and the increased use of e-mail have led to the emergence of “spam,” or electronic junk mail. Numerous marketers have begun to send unsolicited commercial e-mail (UCE) over the Internet. Because this marketing technique is easier and less costly than traditional direct marketing techniques such as direct mail solicitations, e-mail accounts worldwide have been deluged with this unsolicited correspondence.
Spam is not just a nuisance, but it can also bring consumers higher charges for the Internet as service providers are forced to continually upgrade their systems to handle the increased traffic. Spam filters built into MSN and Hotmail servers, for example, block 2.4 billion messages a day. While proponents of UCE insist it is a legitimate marketing technique that is protected by the First Amendment, Congress should enact reasonable restrictions.
Although 35 States have anti-spam laws, there is no federal law specifically concerning spam. Consequently, I have co-sponsored CAN-SPAM, the “Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act” (S. 877), which would do the following: create criminal penalties for the transmission with knowledge and intent of spam messages with header information that is materially false or misleading; prohibit deceptive subject headings; require a functioning return address for the message recipient to submit a request that he or she not receive future messages; require clear identification that a message is an advertisement; and require that message recipients have an opportunity to opt-out, and for the sender to provide a valid physical mail address.
Please be assured that I will continue to support practical, sensible regulations that reduce unwanted spam while taking the concerns of legitimate, honest retailers into account.
Thanks again for contacting me.

I designed a wine label for my father and his friends’ wine. It looks pretty darn sharp! There were two people standing next to the golf bag on the right; dad didn’t like them, so I rubbed them out! Mu hahah! I wield the power of Paint Shop Pro!
I’ve still got to get the quote by Franklin translated into French. No French wine maker would ever sink to placing non-French words on a bottle. Shara has promised to put her Francophile talents to work for me.
