Not a large number of links this week. There were some political and budgetary things I was going to share, but I figure everyone has heard enough about that.

• At NBC, Conan O’Brien Is Building a Home in Late Night’s Shifting Sand – NYTimes.com – I am interested to see what happens with Conan taking over the “Tonight Show”. He seems like a successful guy and that he will excel in Jay Leno’s spot.
• Gmail Gets Multi-Attachment Uploading – Great news for those who are heavy Gmail users!
• Evacuees: Oprah’s Houston homes grow less safe – Helping people out is great, coddling them is another story.
• Fight Grows in Europe for a Secular Sabbath – Stores being closed on Sunday here in the States was common when I was growing up. Maybe it was a Texas thing. Chick-fil-a is the only place I know of now that is unapologetically closed on Sundays.
