Obama can win Georgia
In the primary, more Democrats turned out than Republicans by a slight margin. (1,060,851 to 963,541). The last time this happened was in 1992 when Clinton edged Bush I to win the state.
In the democratic primary, Obama received 704,247 out of 1,060,851 votes. In the Republican primary, McCain received 304,751 out of 963,541 votes. This bodes well for Obama.
In 2004 Bush, rec'd 1.9 million votes to Kerry's 1.36 million. I believe that Obama will need 1.8-2 million votes to win. Not an impossible task. I estimate that 2.3 times more people will turn out for the General Election than did in the primary.
Finally, there are just 21 days until October 6th (the LAST DAY to register to vote)!

Emoticons for Gmail
Finally: a greasemonkey script for gmail that transforms raw emoticons like :-) into their image-based counterparts.
Feeling lucky? Click here to install the script. It's a work in progress, but I'm excited by the results so far and want to begin testing on a macro-level. If you install this version, check back soon for an updated version.


Lots of work left to do. Among other improvements, I will add an 'emoticons bar' to the compose menu so users can insert icons with the click of a mouse. But this is a start. The code is complete with comments and contains a 'to do' list and a list of known bugs.
For a 'key' to the emoticons supported by this script click here.
