Slate has a review of various razors today, including electrics, disposables, and cartridge razors. He even throws in a review of a barber shave. I was glad to see that the razor I use won. Now what we need is a shaving cream review.

More bad reporting from News.com: their article on Eazel talks about how the company has “deep roots in Apple and AOL,” which is all well and good except that all of the former AOL people at Eazel are really former Netscape people.

Yesterday, I mentioned the Model 2 architecture for Web applications written in Java. Here’s an article that describes it.

Salon has a funny wrapup of that who wants to marry a millionaire show they aired last night. I didn’t bother to watch, and my only thought at this point is, “Thank God the millionaire didn’t earn his money in a dot com IPO.”

NASDAQ halted trading in Doubleclick’s stock after they announced that their collection of customer data is the subject of an FTC investigation.

Tim O’Reilly offers some insights on going public in a recent Ask Tim column.

This article compares the “Model 2” architecture for Java applications to using servlets and a template engine. Fun stuff, if you’re into that sort of thing. (Jason Hunter, the author, has also organized his reader responses rather nicely.)

Eazel is an extremely intriguing startup that I heard about for the first time today. They have an all start cast working on improving the desktop interface for Linux, including people who were key to the development of the Macintosh, like Andy Hertzfeld, Darin Adler, and Susan Kare.
