Leslie Katz led a team that explored the intersection of tech and culture, plus all manner of awe-inspiring science, from space to AI and archaeology. When she's not smithing words, she's probably playing online word games, tending to her garden or referring to herself in the third person.

If you like to take your iPod sailing, you might want to know that preppy-clothing retailer has come out with its own MP3 cases.

A cotton patchwork plaid madras case trimmed with leather runs $29.50. Another madras case--which one savvy blogger says looks "suspiciously like the pattern on the dishes my grandmother used to set out when company was coming"--goes for $24.

J.Crew has not yet come out with monogrammed cases or little argyle sweaters to tie around the iPod's neck.
