Screamqueens for the weekend.

Thanks again to spreeblick.com for the hint about "The Noisettes". The last.fm possibility to play a whole artist-alike-radio widens again my ears and eyes with a whole bunch of great bands yet unkown to me.

Open your mind.

P.S. Maybe Supabond uploads some of their songs some once upon a time? Maik?

Sound of Spreeblick auf die Ohren - Part 1.

Nachdem die Wahnsinnigen mit dem wassergetrübten Blick die drei 'besten' Songs (jedweder Form) gesucht hatten, liegen nun die Ergebnisse vor.

Zum WarmTaggen, habe ich mal mit den Top-20 angefangen (die jetzt zwangsläufig eine Top-22 darstellen).

Die anderen werde ich wohl mal am Samstag anfangen - vielleicht möchte ja jemand kollaborativ mitmischen (nach Alphabet?)? So Web2.0-mäßig? last.fm-Account wäre natürlich (leider) die Voraussetzung.

Aber zur Sache, Schätzchen. Eine Melodie, eine Musik, ein sperriges 'Sound of Spreeblick - Top 20'-Tag - Rohrfrei.

P.S. Um aus diesen 'personal'-tags offizielle zu machen, müßte nur jemand ein paar der Songs ebenfalls unter genau diese Tag 'Sound of Spreeblick - Top 20' abspeichern, klar, ne?

RSS Media Overkill - Take this Hand.

Pfehw ... All this RSS-stuff can get a bit too much to handle. There do exist so many different possibilities to manage all the feeds and media, but with now with EVA8000 there is another possibility - NOT?

The interface is a hog, so let's get back several steps (tap, tap, tap) and say "It's just a little player" - "It's just a little player." - Good, because 24/7 it eats too much power.

To handle about 20 different podcasts per day (or even countless), the NSLU2 unslung or even running Debian seems to be far more better - using BashPodder.

BashPodder is not THE program or script, but it shows perfectly how simple one could manage his personal data-mining. Momentarily about 30 different modifications have been contributed to the official page - so the possibilities are endless.

Now with like any other media like ogg, flac, mp4, mov (who cares about Fraunhofers mp3 anyway), you could only have one archive on the NSLU2 and are able to play it everywhere - SSH included, but that's another story to tell. Nothing has changed and everything works. Thanks to 'linc' and his three small scripts.

Following the Halblinks.

Nice to read and follow my friends directly, even with Streetview:

Too sad it does not work outside of Sweden yet ...

But spotify.com could become a nice web alternative listening music over the net. They just made several major deals.

Btw. IP-based-country-content-blocking sucks so much ...

Guitar Hero was nice - now let's get real.

After a wonderful saturday night with GH3 on a Wii (wireless, great!), I think the next step should be taken. I want a game with a real guitar - since nowadays processors are really fast, this should be possible. And it is.

Why can't it be already late 2008?

Looks like a perfect winter to me.

Rockin' la Bonanza ...

My silent friend already has his new spare-time bag for his trip into the tundra ...

I'll start with a moveable house ... two apsis, 'bout 3kg ... less weight is not affordable ... I do not want to go to Alaska, but Denali seems to be the best choice.

Seattle + Seattle = Kultur Shock + KEXP.

Sometimes I am too dumb to count from 1 to 10. Irregulary listening to KEXP (where music matters) now for more than 9 years, I really forgot about their online-archive.


Found two studio-gigs from 2002 and 2005 of Kultur Shock - admireable!

Please, talk clear.

I just thought to send a link to a friend for a nice idea of a summer-trip.

I don't think I sent something comprehensible.

Ein Ferkel, ein Ministerium und Gott.

Vielleicht sollten Erwachsene auch mal wieder Kinderbücher lesen. Lesen und verstehen. Schön, daß es ab und an erziehungsberechtigte Menschen gibt, die sich nichts vormachen lassen, im Gegensatz zum bundeschristlichdeutschen Familienministerium.

Das Buch "Wo bitte geht's zu Gott?" darf im Handel bleiben - und ich hatte bereits die Befürchtung, ich müßte es verbrennen.

The Vampires strike back.

Doctorow seems to be on a full presentation trip in Berlin. netzpolitik.org has also made an interview.

And he wears a cooler shirt.

nin store - Thank You.

The first nine tracks for free of the new album series 'Ghosts I-IV' from uncle Trent. A really great offer. Only $5 for all 36 tracks? What do I get for $300? A signed nail-gun?

Under CC-license?? 320kbps MP3 files without DRM ... oh boy, so many innovations that only the use of the .ogg-Codec could top it.

Thanks Mr. Reznor.

CD Cover Meme - Miombo Barbet.

(via SANOMAT - the german finsk pal) - A very nice idea. Creative workout - so to say.

Have you ever heard of the algerian DJs who call themselves "Miombo Barbet"? Me neither, but their first sampler looks quite interesting ... just kidding, it is a fake cover art for a nonexistant band.

1. A random band name.
2. A random album name (the last four words of the quotation).
3. A random picture (but check the rights of the picture if it really is under editable CC-license!).
4. Try to do your best.

So, Dan - show me what you've got!

Funny flickr pool of built covers and maybe the best flip-cover-show.

About the history of "Miombo Barbet" - a bird found on Africa. The album title has been sponsored by Sir Peter Ustinov (what a lucky boy I must be).And the wonderful picture from flickr fell in my hands. The font KomikaZoom has been found at one of the numerous mirrors with apostrophes Fonts.

Update: if you need a picture with an appropriate CC-licence you could check flickr using a small script from mikelietz

Happy Gaming ths week-end ... in Jönköping.

If I would be 20 years younger ... I would have visited Jönköping for the 'Dreamhack'. 8600 gamers in two halls.

I ask myself what happens if you ask: "Is there an admin in the house?".

Bonmot of the Day #2.

Favorite book (on a profile page of a german newspaper): "Narzis und Goldmund"

Eine neue Definition des selbstverliebten Neo-Rechtsextremisten?

*Tränen-wegwisch*

My recommondation: Narcissus and Goldmund by Mr. Hermann Hesse (while listening to Steppenwolf).

Bonmot of the Day.

Avnämaren: "Das sieht irgendwie zu fimschig aus."

Jag: "Bitte was?" (*google-anwerfend*) Ah, danke an korrekturen.de

My first one on panoramio.com ...

... has been accepted for Google Earth. Many thanks. And that took only a month? OK, now let's try to embed my panoramio-map here.

web 2.0 is ...

... if you start a blog after a friend of you begs you for years ...
