Shuffly: Because I saw someone else do it

      Ryan

      People do this sort of thing on blogs, apparently: Generate a random mp3 playlist.

      Here are the 10 random songs that came up randomly after several random shuffles:

      • Emperor Tomato Ketchup, Sterolab
      • Last Dance, The Dirty Three
      • The Lamb, Low
      • Lie Dream of a Casino Soul, The Fall
      • Fade Together, Franz Ferdinand
      • Bells for Her, Tori Amos
      • Chickfactor, Belle & Sebastian
      • Our Time, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs
      • Where Is My Mind? The Pixies
      • KB, Elastica

      Nothing that I really love there. Where Is My Mind is classic, and Our Time may be my favourite YYY’s song. Weaker contributions from Tori, Belle, and Elastica.

      Wow. I hit shuffle one more time, and a very good playlist came up. Pity I shan’t be able to impress anyone with it.

      Vanity Fair to Twitter: Get Off My Lawn!

      During Christmas Dinner, I had to explain Twitter to my girlfriend's father.
      I don't remember how it came up. It's possible I did something bad and this was Lizz's way of punishing me. I explained things slowly, tried to come up analogies that were accessible to a man in his sixties, but I don't think he understood. He was okay with the technical process, but I'm not sure he really got his mind around why people would actually do that sort of thing for fun, or how it would be useful for anyone.
      I think he still could have written a better article about Twitter than the one Vanessa Grigoriadis wrote for Vanity Fair.
