Today is a holiday of sorts in the U.S.\u00a0 Stock exchanges are closed. Most banks are closed. It’s a good day to stay home, do some reading and some mulling. I’ll be back tomorrow. But for now:<\/p>\n

Item 1,<\/strong> the weekend’s best cartoon:<\/p>\n

Item 2<\/strong> is the best weekend reading — The special report on Tech Startups <\/em>in the latest Economist:<\/p>\n

\"EconomistTechStartups\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I excerpted a little of report in Friday’s column. Click here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Item 3.<\/strong> Consider reading Getting Started with Rails. <\/em>The Economist says Ruby on Rails is an “easy to learn programming framework.”<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Rails\"<\/a><\/p>\n
