I'm often way behind on popular culture - I discover great TV series in their third season and so on.
My latest discovery is Dr. Who. Last summer a friend had to explain to me what a Tardis is. I listened and thought, scifi, not my cup of tea. And then a different friend lent me the DVD of Dr. Who, the 9th series, starring Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper. I laughed so hard I almost fell off my chair. Now I'm ready to start into the 10th series, starring David Tennant.
Here's a promo clip for the 2007 Children in Need fund-raiser, showing a meeting of the 5th Doctor (played by Peter Davison) and the 10th Doctor (David Tennant). Dr Who
Hope you find it as silly and fun as I do.
How embarrassing is this?? It proves the "no longer shy" bit.

Shared documents on iGoogle
Now this looks like it could be really useful for projects. I already collaborate on documents with others, storing them on o:, but this makes it just a little easier to share with selected individuals rather than setting up new directories and permissions.
RSS feeds - who has the time??
Okay, I can't imagine how anyone has the time to read their RSS feeds. I signed up for a few (latest news from CBC, music, cartoon of the day), checked 2 days later, and thought I can't cope with sieving through all this. I unsubscribed from most.

RSS feeds
Nice and simple to set up. I can see how these would be addictive - you could spend hours looking at this and forget to do anything else.

Piano duets
My friend Angela has two pianos and we play duets weekly. We are playing this Bach piece right now (albeit at a slower pace) - but are having great fun.
