Since it's just about graduate application time, here are some useful links to help people out during this stressful experience:
Retrospectacle has a post about getting into graduate schools. I think Shelley also has a follow up post to this one - but you'll have to track it down.
Here is another set of advice from Katherine, also good, and also from the University of Michigan.
If you're thinking about going to grad school you should probably read these comics ;)
And good luck if you're applying now!

So, I forgot that you were changing sites and I didn't update my rss feed. I was thinking, "Steve hasn't posted in a while; must be end-of-term craziness." Then I remembered, and I realized there were lots of posts I had missed. I'm glad that you gave me the proper shout-out, though, in this post! The advice is probably a bit late for most people, as it looks like this post was written the day after a huge number of applications were due. Then again, my advice recommends getting started way early, so it's good for the people who are applying the following year.
I was wondering where you disappeared to?! hahah..
yeah some apps have been missed... I think a whole bunch of apps are due up to the 5th of jan. aren't they?
And the advice is also good for deciding where to actually go once you get in.
I'll have to post this earlier next year ;)
