Another cute puppy picture

Here's Coffee on her first day in Key West, romping at Bill Butler Park. Interestingly, as she grew the brown patches spread and the lighter patches shrank so she appears much darker now than she is in this photo.

The other cool thing is that my mom used this photo to make an awesome cross stitch version of this picture.

Today's New York Times has an interesting story about how MIT and other colleges are embracing student blogs as part of their admission process. This illustrates how blogs are changing the way people receive -- and provide -- information. It allows prospective students to hear directly from students already at the college about their experiences. But the colleges have little, if any, control over what the students are saying about the place.
