"For many ordinary citizens, dual passports still seem dodgy: a convenience for the cosmopolitan few or a sop to the menacing many, rather than a natural feature of a migratory world." The fact that this seems so weird probably means that I am part of some sort of "transnational elite", then.

I've finally given up on Delicious. Until (unless?) the network returns, I'm seeing more on Pinboard, so I may as well save things there. It's not ideal - I feed Instapaper starred items in and they don't get the same level of metadata as they should - but it's better than this.

I'm a month late to this, but it could be useful. I still have two years of stuff on blech.vox.com but a lot of it needs to be migrated to something I have more control of. This importer claims to do comments and can be password-protected; it might be very handy.

Does what it says in the title, giving you a mechanism for migrating Gears data from one schema to another.

I've still got all my archived mail - everything from something like '02 to August of last year - in Eudora, but I'm now using Mail as my primary client. At some point I'll look at this and put everything in one place. Sigh.
