cyclone dust

Dyson Cyclone vacuum sounds like a neat idea. I did some research on cyclone technology and ordered a small sheet-metal cyclone off eBay. It fits into the 2-inch shop-vac hose. I want to use it to vacuum up some of the cullulose fiber insulation in the attic.

wiki-enhanced sites

Wikipedia was on NPR again yesterday. They mentioned the dude's wikia.com as some great new thing. So I checked it out and it seems to be simply hosted mediawiki supported by Google AdWords. Technologically, this is nothing exciting alongside pbwiki.com and schtuff.com, etc.

I am more interested in collaboration tools that include email-archives/discussion-lists, wiki markup and tags: Basically like free/better versions of BaseCamp.
