Yesterday I stook some snapshots on the island, which is still under construction. The slideshow is here.

The Queen’s Gambit by Diane A. S. Stuckart
July 26, 2009 · Comments Off
The Queen’s Gambit is Diane A. S. Stuckart’s first Leonardo da Vinci mystery. It is told in first person by Dino, one of Leonardo’s apprentices. I won’t spoil the story by giving away Dino’s secret.
The novel was a little slow, but I did enjoy it and plan to read the sequels: Portrait of a Lady and Bolt from the Blue (due out in January 2010).
If you enjoy mysteries and historical fiction, I highly recommend it.

TweetGrid

Earlier this week, I posted a list of “Web-Based Tools for Searching Twitter in Real Time” in which I wrote that I liked Monitter because you could use it to “track three keywords at the same time.” At the time, I had only tried TweetGrid’s search function and not its dashboard that searches up to ten keywords and updates in real time. It also has party and widget options. I’ll definitely be using TweetGrid more in the future.
I found several videos on YouTube that show and tell how to use TweetGrid:
