Pretty cool departure from their previous design (and everyone elses’).
Pretty amazing music site, pretty amazing music.
I’ll buy whatever it is that Apple wants to sell me.
In Mother America...
Whenever I hear “Democrats need to become a stronger” or “Democrats need to become a more effective party” I hear echos of Stalinist Russia where THE PARTY was more than an ideology it was a way of life it was a religion. Scares the living bajebus out of me.

People of Earth:
In the last few days, I’ve been getting a lot of sympathy calls, and I want to start by making it clear that no one should waste a second feeling sorry for me. For 17 years, I’ve been getting paid to do what I love most and, in a world with real problems, I’ve been absurdly lucky. That said, I’ve been suddenly put in a very public...
Airport Body Scanning - AVN Hot Topic - CNN... →
Rob Leach turns out to be a pretty badass war hawk in this. Also of course porn stars in generally aren’t going to care about body scanning.

Heres what sucks about being Apple...
Imagine if you will if the litany of rumors are all false; however unlikely that may be. Imagine January 27th-28th comes and goes and there is no Apple event, no tablet. Do you realize what a beating the stock will take on those few days. Sure it’ll stabilize after a while but it could be down till Apple unleashes a Tablet or some announcement that trumps that. Expectations are always high...

And now a rant on Battlefield Pre-Ordering...
Damn’t DICE and EA I am a die hard devoted fan of Battlefield and especially Bad Company. I pre-ordered Bad Company 2 for the 360 and what do I get? Diddly jack shit. Come on, PS3 and PC owners get a slice of the prelaunch goodness but you’re going to leave us out 360 owners out in the cold like second rate citizens. Thats not cool.
Why Democrats are jumping ship - CNN.com →
Perhaps it’s time for both parties to go the way of the dodo bird and new parties that are less extremist to rise up in their place. Or maybe miraculously everyone can find a brain sitting on the side of the road think for themselves and become an independent.

And Now a Thought on iPhone Pricing...
If Apple does indeed open up to other carriers this summer whether that be Verizon or TMobile it benefits everyone (except AT&T). Apple’s market share grows, why would you choose an Android device on TMobile or Verizon if you could have an iPhone? And it benefits us existing iPhone users as we now have choice, choice over network and more importantly choice over pricing. AT&T charges...

Apple’s App Store: From 2 To 3 Billion Downloads... →
This tidbit of news is absolutely insane. 1 BILLION, fathom that real quick, 1 000 000 000 apps were downloaded in as little as 3 months. Sorry Nexus One but you plus all the other Android phones have a hell of a long way to go.

A Decade In History of Online Video
What a great look back at video online from one of the leaders of online video entertainment Rocketboom. What does 2010 and beyond hold?
If you thought YouTube was big now just wait till Apple finally integrates a 720p video camera in the iPhone. HD and video will explode and with it the “Twitter Effect” of realtime news will put CNN and FoxNews in a tough spot.
