Twitter

A common question I hear from friends when talking about Twitter is, "What exactly is Twitter? What's the point??" I think anyone that puts 5 minutes into actually seeking an answer to that question will find that Twitter is simply a quick way to keep people up to speed on what you're doing. You're limited to 140 characters per 'tweet' and can update your status from any computer (twitter.com), phone (sms text), or hybrid thereof (smartphone application, etc).

Oh.. and I brought home a Macbook the other day. I guess I've done a 180 from a year ago - just call me the US Republican Party.

Edit - added a gadget to the left, hooray for technology

A song good enough to put you in a good mood...

...all by itself

(well, there used to be a Youtube video embedded here, but it was taken down due to a copyright claim. The song was "Call of the Wild")

I stumbled upon this band, Nightwish, while cruising wimp.com the other day and they've become my taste-of-the-week. It's a blend of heavy metal (just lost a few people), classical, and even a little Irish traditional.

Just goes to show that while one may think that all the possible music has been listened to, there's plenty out there yet to be discovered.

Marketing gets personal

EA Sports has always been a pretty 'cool' company, but even for them this is pretty un-corporate. Check it out-

Someone on Youtube finds a glitch in EA Sports' Tiger Woods 2008 (I was personally addicted to the 2002 version of the game on Playstation 2 while at Young Harris and UT)

And EA responds with this funny clip

I like where the internet is taking business, even if only for a few companies so far.
