St. Louis Bloggers Guild
This week I joined the St. Louis Bloggers Guild. I know a couple other people that were part of it and I figured it would be a good way to meet fellow St. Louis bloggers. I'm interested to see what ki...
Tonedeff- Warden (Love Lockdown Rmx)
One of my favorite artists, Tonedeff, created a remix of Kanye West's Love Lockdown. Tonedeff states, "It’s not so much a remix is as it is a re imagining of the concept – added a bunch of instrumenta...
The Genius of Tupac
After waking up and seeing this article on the front page of Digg, I was instantly in a Tupac mood. The article does a good job of narrowing down his music to 22 of his best tracks (I'd disagree with...
A New Medium
I read an article on Wired yesterday about SanDisk pushing to replace CDs with "SlotMusic," basically an album, complete with artwork, on a MicroSD card. Five to 10 years ago, this might have caught o...
The Magic is Lost
When I was growing up there seemed to be magic specials on TV all the time. I would say every couple months there would be some sort of magic show on television. Sometimes it was a solo performer, suc...
Plan for Change
While John McCain and Sarah Palin lie about all of their changes, Barack Obama is sitting back and telling the country what he plans for change. Take a look at his new 2 minute ad. It's simple, yet po...
Lifestreaming with Sweetcron
Yesterday I found some really cool software called Sweetcron. What it does is gathers all the feeds you add and displays it in a variety of ways. It's a self-hosted lifestream. There are a few themes...
Too Many Sites, Too Little Time
I've not been updating this site much lately, besides the two posts over the weekend. Things have just been really busy for me. Busy at work and busy at home. With last week being the RNC, Political J...
Don't Believe the Lies
I'm very tired of seeing all these ads and one-liners in the press about how Obama and the Democrats are tax and spend and will raise your taxes. If you would look at the tax plans for both candidates...
Would You Vote for John McCain?
This was a funny little poem I saw on Digg. In all seriousness though, it amazes me that people are still going to vote for him after seeing what has happened in the past 8 years. Don't be fooled, he...
Microblogging with Asaph
Today I found out about a piece of software called Asaph. It is a great microblogging system. What makes it so great is the ease in which you can post. Just drag the bookmarklet to your bookmarks then...
Sony ICF-C1iP Dock with Clock for iPod or iPhone
A few weeks ago I bought the Sony ICF-C1iP Dock with Clock for iPod or iPhone. I was at Target and started listening to all their iPod/iPhone docks. The Sony was one of the systems with the best sound...
Backups with Jungledisk
I recently started backing up my computer with Jungledisk. I previously used Mozy to backup but Jungledisk intrigued me for a few reasons. One is you can add your storage as a mapped drive. You couldn...
Blockbuster Online Problems

The Costanza Experiment
I'm going to begin a little experiment I'd like to call The Costanza Experiment, named after one of the wisest philosophers of our time, George Costanza. If you remember, there was an episode of Seinf...
Primeval
A few days ago I downloaded the first episode of the BBC TV show Primeval for free on iTunes. It's a sci-fi show about a rip in time and space where dinosaurs, giant insects, and whatever else comes t...
Changing Musical Tastes
I've always been a fan of all music. In fact, if you look at my last.fm profile, you'll notice the diversity in music listed there. I have Miles Davis, Tupac Shakur, Frank Sinatra, Incubus, and Cunnin...
The Tori Paradox
Everyone knows what a Saved by the Bell geek I am. If you didn't know that then did you really know me? I mean, come on. As much as I love the show there are a few things that bug me. The biggest thin...
Blockbuster Online is Lackluster Online
Blockbuster Online launched a new design today. The look isn't bad but there are some things that concern me. First, each new page I go to I see a welcome back message at the top of the screen under t...
