New ArcGIS Service Pack, Google Pages & Yeasayer video on La blogotheque

There's a new ArcGIS service pack coming out. ArcGIS 9.2 SP 5 is planned to be released in late March 2008. I haven't gone through the list of changes and corrections but will likely install it a month or two after its released.

Google Pages lets you create and host a free webpage in less than two minutes. They also offer free gadgets & templates to add to your page for increased functionality. I added the hemisphere layout of a world sunlight map. Pages is about as advanced as .mac web development but less functionality than iLife '08's iWeb application. Will Google force the price of .mac subscriptions down with this service???
Also, the Yeasayer video of "No Need To Worry/Redcave" on La blogotheque is of them performing these songs on a subway in France I believe. For anyone unfamiliar with La blogotheque it is a French music video website that has renowned performers playing in varied places, sometimes public sometimes private but always interesting.
