Hello! I haven’t posted in a while. blah blah blah. So kill me.

Well, this isn’t related to work but it sorta does. It is inspirational to me for sure.

I just found this nifty software for Mac, PC, and Linux that shares your whole music library over the internet. That means you can listen to your music wherever you are, and your friends too! It can also be used with your new iPhone! Double wow! I’m listening and believing this is the answer to all my prayers! no more syncing my damn Iphone, and no more music not playing on other computers. No more bullshit with Itunes and Apple not sharing or playing my music, hopefully.

I can listen to my music again! …and without carrying around a cumbersome hard drive. It works with Itunes and Winamp too. It’s simple. It gets the job done. You don’t need another media player. This is one software in a succession of others that is centered around simplicity, wow, what a good name! Simplify. I haven’t been this excited in years!

Download it and add me as your friend. I’ll just have to give you my screen name, and that’s it!

Radiohead RE/MIX

Radiohead, my favorite band of all time, have called upon the general populous to create the next remix of their song “Nude”. It’s a brilliant idea. They’re obviously testing out fresh ideas to make music the music industry a more interactive engaging experience instead of being like a cold hand that force feeds you through a tube.

Animation wise, they have called on animation artists of all types to come up with provocative adaptations called a music video of a song on their new album as well. I hope they continue to do that. You can check that out here. The finals on June 23rd have yet to take place and I can’t wait to see what comes out of this competition!
