This is why you shouldn't install toolbars. Not even Googlebar.

Happy New Year!

It's a new Year, 2007! And my resolution is to not make any resolutions. Why? Who keeps them??

Christmas is almost upon us...

so strap on your armor and get into defensive positions.

New Camera

obiwanjp — Mon, 04 Dec 2006 21:38:19 GMT

I ordered a Canon Powershot SD30 5MP Digital Elph Volitious Violet Digital Camera (that's it's name, really!) for my daughter for Christmas. It arrived in the mail today, and I couldn't help myself. I had to open the box just to take a peek. It's TINY! It's the opposite of ginormous! This thing is so small it comes with tools for handling the buttons. Yet, it has a huge LCD. Well, I don't know much more, because it isn't MY camera, and I couldn't take it out of the bubble wrap. It is safely hidden until Christmas. But, Amazon has so many more...

More random stuff I am not listening to

Which is not in my library, and I don't own it anywhere? This can't be MOG-wide top artists, can it??? If that is true, then my top four are the MOG's top four Here is the top artists this week widget on my page: R.E.M. - Fine, that's almost all I listen to. Pet Shop Boys - Tied for third probably with DM below. Depeche Mode - as above, but lower this week probably as a result of the new PSB album They Might Be Giants - I gotta lotta TMBG, no problems here New Order - Why they aren't higher is anyone's guess. Cocteau Twins - dreamy, and belonging Portishead - whoo. I love the little wikky-wikky turntable effects, and the beat, and the lyrics and the Portishead The Smiths - Perennial favorite of mine. Girlfriend in a Coma, There is a Light, good stuff. Ole Evenrude - This is NOT in my library Alex Kid Feat. Lisette Alea - I have no idea who this is, not in my library, and not on my shelves.

So, my question now is this: Is the tops artists this week widget particular to me? If so, it's wrong. Or, is it MOG-wide, and am I one of like three people listening to music (or, does everyone here like 99% of the same music I do?)??

This place is weird.

What The?

Not sure what the deal is, but I've got a couple of bands in my top artists this week that I don't even have loaded in iTunes. Oddly, I DO have albums by these bands...

They are: Ole Evenrude Candan Erçetin

Weird! MOGOMATIC is psychic!

Mogging?

I'm not sure if "Mogging" is really what we're doing here. Or what it means to be "blazing". Or why I would want to trust another Mogger (Moggle? Moggie?), especially those Moggets that are just bands self-promoting. But really, I'm a hardcore member of (shhhh!) audioscrobbler and when I heard about Mog, I had to try it. It looks like it has potential. I'm not sure about the Mogomatic though. I like audioscrobbler's plugin. It takes my plays and posts them. The mogomatic seems to be indexing my entire collection, which is a little creepy, because there's stuff loaded on there that isn't music, and won't ever get played. Plus, the mogomatic is a preference pane (in Mac OS X), which I tend to avoid, because they lock up or act strangely sometimes. Well, also, I'm on a dialup connection, which means a continuous suck or send from the Mogomatic can be quite problematic... Well, that's a lot of negativity, sorry, I'm still trying to get the hang of the different thing which Mog is. I'm not ready to quit it, which is a good sign...
