With some AAA memberships I believe you could drive down the road 5 mins, mysteriously run out of gas, and they'd have to tow you to your destination....

Million Dollar IdeaThis is so obvious, why didn't I think of it before? Your mouse ball and plastic little rollers inside can pick up more dirt/dust items off the 5"x5" area of your desk than you could ever imagine anyway (at least it did before you replaced it with an optical mouse, totally missing this opportunity) -- So what would happen if you created a vacuum-cleaner device that consisted only of mouse balls and plastic rollers? This would surely pick up most of the dirt in the universe. Investors, anyone?

Interesting Marketing ExperienceAnders, IMHO if you are trying to promote the hosting, your main page (via the WDevs link) is laid out pretty horribly. It took me 30 seconds to actually find out what you were referring to (and I'm assuming it's the section in the 'news' link.) The way the text is laid out, I can't really grap A) what WDevs does, and B) where to look for information, in any reasonable amount of time. It's kind of like the default, obligatory text in Microsoft Knowledge Base articles that my brain is now trained to skip over (they could put a link that says "You are the one visitor that we will give $1,000 to if you click this link" and I wouldn't notice). Considered an image of some kind? Different color sections? Maybe the ASP.NET logo if you qualify for it along with the ad? Food for thought. B

Suggestions for design diagrammingIs there anything besides Visio that can do a *good*, drill-down capable, multi-layer software design diagram? (Not that Visio can do all of those things, AFAIK) but the amount of time I spend trying to get a design right the first time (which is dang near impossible) and scrapping it because I want to add a large component that won't fit on the page... etc, etc, whatever... is too long. I want to be able to draw pretty boxes, drill down into the pretty boxes, draw some more pretty boxes, drill down into those boxes....... and at the end get some kind of tree-view style document thingy.
