Subject: WordPress.com Golden Ticket
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away you entered your email address on http://wordpress.com/ to get a blog.
We’re now inviting small groups to use WordPress.com and your email address was selected today!
Visit this address to get started:

While you’re on a string of good luck it might be a good day to buy a lottery ticket. Better move fast though, because this invite will expire in a week, no exceptions.
Cheers,

Now, I submitted my e-mail address a while ago to this. Not that long ago, but a little while. So I asked myself, “Self, do I need another site on the web? I’ve got a lot as it is.” I mean, there’s already livejournal (a), livejournal (b), blogger (a), blogger (b) (dead), textamerica (dead), flickr, last.fm, and myspace. Do I need another space on the web?
Yes.
This will serve as my digital life cache. Ideas I have, applications I’d like to see/that I found, etc. Enjoy.
