Ágætis Byrjun (An Alright Start)


  • Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Leija, Raymundo and Jennifer. We love you and wish you all the best in your new life together.
  • HelloFromPhoenixThere are far worse things to be doing during one of the coldest, wettest Februarys I can remember than traveling to Phoenix, AZ, even if it is a working trip. It went very well, and the highs were in the mid 70’s (F) the whole time, which, considering there was an ice storm the morning I flew out of DTW, is the sort of thing I can appreciate.
  • Little things I’m enjoying the heck out of, even if they’re just “a little cool” rather than “Wow, I need to write 500 words about each of these!” Please allow me to go all TechCrunch on that ass.
    • The release of all 9 Basic Channel (wikipedia) EP’s digitally, via Beatport, the first time these have ever been officially available for download. I think we’ll actually be posting a big retrospective about these over on Moodmat, maybe.
    • Skitch, the über screenshot utility for OS X from the clever folks who brought us Comic Life.
    • Tripit lets you consolidate all those maps, reservations, and confirmation numbers into a single, self-contained printout, and if you booked through one of the services they support, will do so with nothing more than an email forward to plans@tripit.com.
    • Sandy, the automated reminder/digital assistant, i.e. you email reminders to “her” and she can extract contact info, meeting invites, etc.
    • Prologue, a Wordpress theme that allows you to do something that approximates a “behind-the-firewall-Twitter” within your own workgroup.
