  • Companies Should Care

    As a consumer, I get the feeling that companies don’t care for me. If I were a vindictive person, then I probably would be going out of my way to screw them out of even a tiny bit of their profits. Piss enough of us off, and they would feel the pain in their wallets.…

  • Sasha, Tong, and Fontaine @ Privilege

    Last few days have been crazy. Have taken 2 road trips within 24 hours, one personal and one work. Waiting on the afternoon session to start. Once it is done I will be on my way home. Dammit… I knew I should have skipped the country in favor of Ibiza… Thankfully, Radio One rebroadcast Sasha, Tong,…

  • Stop Digital Piracy

    According to Eisner in this Reuters article, “Congress needs to encourage common ways of stopping digital piracy of movies, TV shows and other entertainment products that threatens to stifle industry innovation…”. If you are already of the opinion that the media industy has no innovation, then I guess digital piracy is supposed to make it…

  • In and Out

    Had lunch with Cat, Dusty, Tamara, and Leti. Was very good to see them all again. Sharon was in and out since she technically was working. Right now I am listening to the new Essential Mix with Paul Jackson. I really enjoyed last week’s with Ashley Casselle. Oh, I seriously doubt that A Feast for Crows from the…

Oh I believe in yesterday.Suddenly, There’s not half the files there used to be, And there’s a milestone hanging over me. The system crashed so suddenly. I pushed something wrong What it was I…

  • Napster is dead

    Wonder who will be “the next big thing” in online Music? Napster is dead. I’ve heard good things about AudioGalaxy and iMesh. I’ve had some good experiences with Morpheus. Maybe there are just too many options? You almost have to have your finger on the pulse of the activity in order to find the good stuff. Back when Napster…

  • Robotech MP3s

    Three weeks ago, my grandmother was in London. She never drives her car faster than 35 so I took it out on the highway to get the carborator to burn off some buildup. Took the long way to Tally, but when I got there I spent an couple hours at Governor’s Square Mall. Found the…

  • Zips and CDR

    Got the Zip drive working at home. Now maybe I should look to get some network cards and an ethernet cable… could get both my 233 and my 66 connected and transfer files. Probably something I should do before wiping either machine? At work I should install the SCSI card and the CDR. Then I…
