Now for today's blogthoughts:
I've been listening to Barack Obama's politics. I personally love him. But even if you don't you must download this podcast. Just for the first one second. Barack says the most agressively loud and monotonous "Hello". It's hilarious. It reminded me of Will Ferrell's skit where he has the voice modulation thing.
How hard is it to find a website that will allow me to create something that looks like this: merlinmann.com and allows me to link out of their domain? very difficult, apparently. so frustrating. freewebs, googlepages, spymac, you all suck, i hate you a bit. damn you.
Leo Laporte, the podfather, watched the hotchkiss facebook song...he called it "boring". It made me laugh a lot. Fuck hotchkiss.
Internet was down for me for about 5 hours today, it was amazing. everything that i do every day is completely dependent on the internet, i was like...well i'll just ohwait...well i can do this while i wait....oh shit. o mannnnn. It's amazing that 98 % of my entertainment comes in one way or the other from the internet.
net@nite talked to Evan Williams. Can you believe the same guy founded Odeo, Blogger and twitter? Pretty amazing.
NPR has a 5 minute news summary that comes in at 7 AM. I enjoy it, because i like news, but not enough to spend 10 minutes on it.
I'm known as a mac enthusiast among my group of friends, and recently more and more of them are showing up with macbooks. Each one, to a man, click the dashboard icon (which is so pointless btw) on the dock and say something along the lines of "i love this guy" or "i love this little thing". And my response is always the same. You'll get tired of it. once the cache gets huge and you don't know how to empty it, once you grow to fear those moments when you hit it by accident and your whole system stops while it loads, you will hate it. And they always do. This is one of the features that apple desperately needs to revamp in Leopard... I have mine completely disabled.
