Why, Web 2.0, Why?

The folks over at FriendFeed have found a neat, geeky way to give instant gratification to changelog/feature junkies*: publish the Mercurial changeset descriptions.

I particularly like this change:

changeset: 9aa41470d10f
user: bret
date: 2008-02-27 15:30:19
description: More rounded corner images. Why must corners be rounded? Why, Web 2.0, why?

Dude, I feel your pain.

(*I confess I feel this way about Adium betas. I read all the changelogs – probably the only software I do that with.)
