Popularity Dialer on KROQ part 2 — with text moos
Be sure to listen for the text moos.
I just got the mp3 of the interview that Jenny and I did on KROQ a few weeks ago. I wanted to write more about what the experience was like but it has been such a hassle getting this mp3 uploaded correctly due to trouble with the […]
Photoblogger
I’m now a photoblogger. At work this morning we were talking about web2.0 sites, community participation, and so on, and we looked a bit at flickr’s upload tools. I’ve been getting nudged for awhile to start posting more photos to my blog, so I took about 10 minutes to set up Flickr’s upload-by-email […]
Friday Double Feature: Sign of the Times and Leslie the Mime
Since it’s Friday, I’m going to put up two films today. First, the story of Leslie Thumb, mime:

Popularity Dialer Video
Jenny and Sai made this video about the Popularity Dialer in the spring. I finally put it up on Youtube last week so it would be up there for our KROQ interview. Check it out. The music’s great.
Demetri Martin
I saw Demetri Martin at the UCB Theatre in NYC a few weeks ago with my friend Patrick. We had seen some clips of him on Youtube and wanted to see him in person. Demetri is one of the best new comedians around. I like that it’s such smart comedy. Enjoy.
AutoRate your iTunes tracks
I was looking for virtual desktop software for my Mac and came across AutoRate, a program that automatically rates the songs in your iTunes library based on an algorithm that includes data on how often you skip each track, along with your playcount.
When I first installed the last.fm plugin (the scrobbler, right?), I remember thinking […]
