In a moment of ego, I Googled sdc[blog] and was directed to Erik from FreshlySqueezedSoftware’s nslog (which I read anyway but admittedly have been a little behind on), and specifically a post about anyone who donated $50 or more to the EFF being added to the default feeds of PulpFiction, and lo and behold there I am, in with the legendary BoingBoing and Engadget.

Okay, so it’s not as cool as getting there on the merits of the blog itself (quit laughing… I see you laughing!), but still, I hope that at least a few people keep the feed and read my corner of the web on occasion. And if you do, feel free to let me know so I can link back to you.

Enjoy your Tuesday, I’m off to go yell at iTunes for screwing up a promotion.

Some of you more avid readers (er…both of you?) will notice that I’ve made some minor design revisions to the site. The feeds are now up in the corner and the date and entry titles have been switched around. I will continue to ‘clean up’ the design to optimize the user experience.
Thanks to CommunityMX and Kryogenix.org for their invaluable tools.

I don’t know why I haven’t linked to this before, but lowmorale have created the world’s most depressing video to go with my teen angst anthem, Radiohead’s “Creep” (Only available from iTMS in a Richard Cheese version. Way to stay cool, Thom.

Speaking of iTMS (Hi, Thuy-An!), from the why-isn’t-this-a-feature-already department, TunesTracker will poll the music store and let you know any time new music from your favorite artists has been added. So ummm, let’s get right on that mmkay? Alternately let me suggest the ability to create a custom RSS feed of selected artists that will send you anytime your selected artists are updated. Might help in the move toward killerapp status for RSS.
Recently I’ve developed a new fondness for design blogs, perhaps stemming from my ongoing project to empty my house of all the extra crap I have here just because I have the space (anyone need a scanner?). Some of the nicest stuff I’ve seen of late includes a jellyfish-inspired ceiling light, a half-cube light that looks like some sort of matter inverter error (search for ‘edge’) [via mocoloco] and what must be the coolest aquarium ever

From the yet-another-mashup-we-didnt-need department: Usher vs. Harold Faltermeyer (no relation) “Usher Foley” (a DJ Crook Air production) which everyone should feel free to listen to on their new Denon 16.1 A/V receiver. Cause, you know, 16.1 is the next 5.1. You could pay for it by chargeback-ing the electric company with your new electric car! (talk about a ROI)

Mad props to whomever comes up with a fun musical interpretation with Johnny Cash Reading The Bible.

Oh, and Jimmy Fallon: time to do a new photoshoot, dude. Really.
