08:58 –<\/span> At least Amazon Prime instant video saves recent searches, so when I pressed the asterisk button on the Roku controller last night the search box came up with Inspector Lewis already listed. Still, it’s pretty obvious that Amazon is trying to make watching free videos difficult. Presumably, they’re paying for those videos by the number of times they’re watched, so it’s in their interest to minimize free views. It’s pretty clear that Netflix has nothing to worry about from Amazon.

I’m still working heads-down on the forensics book re-write. There’s a surprising amount of work involved in re-purposing the text to make it kit-based, mainly because having a customized kit available opens up the options considerably. We’re able to add lab sessions that weren’t practical before because of the cost of purchasing all the necessary items piecemeal. Of course, using the book won’t require buying the kit. Anyone who wants to can still buy all of the stuff piecemeal, but they’ll end up spending a lot more money to do that.

13:09 –<\/span> Hmmm. Here’s a fascinating video of a rabbit that thinks it’s a Border Collie. Apparently, the actual Border Collie shown in the video has trained the rabbit to herd sheep. I particularly liked the part around 2:08 where one of the sheep challenges the rabbit, who gives it that steely-eyed Border Collie stare. The sheep decides it’s not worth messing with something as dangerous as a rabbit.
