Links for Friday 13 October 2006

Make.text: Bookmarklet to convert a web page into Markdown syntax (which I've started to use almost everywhere). Could be handy. (via Daring Fireball)
TidBITS - Eudora to Become Open Source Collaboration with Mozilla: Bugger. I've been using Eudora since early 1995. At some point the current version will no doubt stop working with future versions of OS X. (via Daring Fireball and others)
SimpleXML processing with PHP: Nice clear explanation and examples (for PHP5). Will be handy sometime I'm sure. If only it was as simple in PHP4. (via Daring Fireball)
Coelacanth (2005): More about Ben Moor's 'Coelacanth' to whet your whatever.
BBC- Radio 4 - Afternoon Play: Ben Moor's 'Coelacanth' is the Afternoon Play today, and you can listen again for a week. I saw him do it live and it was both very funny and very touching. So do tune in.
