Apollo Moon Landing Broadcast

Jason Kottke put together a cool page for broadcasting the Apollo Moon landing. Its an embedded YouTube video set to start playing (via a javascript trigger) 40 years from the original broadcast (later today! July 20th). A cool concept with excellent execution. Check it out!

PingWire

Infinitely more interesting than Twitter, PingWire lets you see pics being uploaded to Twitter in real time.

Fifteen Randoms

I saw one of those classic posts on the book of faces today: put your iPod on shuffle and list the first fifteen songs that play. Talk about presumptuous. I know they have a fairly large market share, but I’m still holding out on Apple products. More to the point, I was curious to see what would turn up if I shuffled the current musical contents of my hard drive and decided I should post the results here since I update so infrequently. I think the results are pretty indicative of my music listening habits: all over the place.

  • Stardeath and White Dwarf – Smoking Pot Makes Me Not Want to Kill Myself
  • St. Vincent – Black Rainbow
  • Battles – Race: In
  • Pink Mountaintops – Outside Love
  • Fabulous Diamonds – LP4
  • Iron & Wine – Homeward These Shoes
  • George Williams Aingo – Akiko Nu Bonto
  • Kings of Leon – Notion
  • Karl Blau – 2 Becomes 1
  • Dananananaykroyd – Infinity Milk
  • Murs – Me and This Jawn
  • Wild Beasts – Woeboegone Wanderers
  • Ladytron – Another Breakfast with You
  • Kings of Convenience – The Build-Up
  • Paul Desmond – Embarcadero (alternate take)

You Nailed It!

I really enjoyed this serious of photos featuring nails as people. You should, too.

Strictly Coincidental

Picked up Pei Wei for lunch.
Stopped to help an old man.
Tried to jump start his truck.
Pushed his truck into a parking lot.
Finished my drive home.
Ate spicy shrimp with brown rice.
Watched twenty minutes of Helvetica.
Opened my fortune cookie.
Ate my fortune cookie.
Read my fortune.

“Your kindness is surely to be repaid.”

Patiently awaiting payment.
Contemplating a lottery ticket.
Realizing I’m already well compensated.
