The other day, when I posted about an interview with Adrian Holovaty, a programming journalist, I checked out, on his recommendation, Ibiseye, a new online weather tracking application at the Sarasota Herald-Tribune in Florida. 
I looked at it more closely today as skies like dingy sheets harken the possible arrival of what may be the first tropical named storm of the 2006 hurricane season.
Ibiseye, a beta version of a new hurricane tracking service It's a perfect example of what Holovaty calls "journalism through computer programming."
Why Ibiseye? Here's the explanation from the reporter-programmer team who created the site with streaming weather data, Google Maps and , state and county property and GIS records:
"Like a reporter, the Ibis is said to be the last bird to leave ahead of a storm and first to return; IBISEYE.com gives an Ibis-like view of all hurricanes to hit Florida from 1851 to today."
Programming, Poetry, News.

I'm fine, all the speculation, I calm treatment. Not noisy no trouble do not show off, do not wronged do not laugh, do not need others to know.

Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
