Here’s a quick roundup of articles I marked to share with others over the past few weeks:

• What Storytellers Can Teach You About How to Learn Faster
  From lifehack.org, a short article on the use of fantastical metaphors in learning and remembering.
• Characters who are not yet important
  From Screenwriter John August, at johnaugust.com. This is another of John’s direct, practical answers to a reader’s question about scripts.
• BusySync Release
  Via Daring Fireball, a significant update to a program I wish I used more.
• How to Convert a MacOS X 10.5 Leopard Upgrade DVD into a Retail MacOS X 10.5 Leopard
  From uneasysilence.com, an appropriately named article I thought might be useful for those who bought Macintosh computers manufactured before October 26th after the Leopard release.
• FBI’s Hoover planned mass U.S. jailings: report
  From Reuters, my senior history project over civil liberties (especially Habeas Corpus) during wartime could have used the declassification of these documents to bolster its thesis.
