I love to see the cross-pollination of ideas between open source projects, and the clever ways they can be adapted from one paradigm to another.

For example, recent versions of OpenOffice.org have become more like web browsers, especially Firefox, as OOo introduced its Extensions features, as developers have worked to provide wiki-capabilities, and now, as a new extension called Last Session allows you to reopen OOo and have all your previous documents open for you with one click, just like I’ve become accustomed to with Firefox’s session restore.

Last Session is something I had a distinct need for, and I look forward to making good use of it starting immediately.
