in my continuing quest to become a plugged-in, organized new media guru, i have decided that i want to purchase a PDA. given that i have no idea what PDA actually even stands for, or the capabilities that certain PDAs may have, i need some help on making a decision. things i need: web browsing capabilities, email capabilities, RSS reading capabilities and, uh, a puppy screensaver. i don't know what else. tommy says there are PDAs out there that you can hook up collapsible keyboards to, to turn them into portable computers, so that'd be pretty sweet. anyway, blogosphere hivemind, i turn to you in your infinite wisdom. what PDA should i buy?

for those who are interested in my maniacal baking, my DCist Baking In (cakelove cupcake style) is now up. yummy:

other dessert recipes from zee blog:

are you reading waiter rant? it's the musings of a waiter at an anonymous bistro in new york city. he's funny and moving and caustic and though it's mostly him offering up social commentary (ie bitching) about his various customers, every once in a while he'll go off on a well-written tangent totally unrelated to food or dining.

you really should be reading it. i dare you to take a look at this post, about his time as a priest-in-training, and not be moved.
