“groovy mother...”

My last three months worth of listening. Generated with last.fm data and Wordle.

My speed over the last year has been approximately that of a butterfly, according to my Dopplr profile.

My Facebook friends, mapped out using the Nexus app.

Major constellations are marked -- improvisers sure like their own, huh?

Hadn't seen this before. A lovely real-time glanceable view of the state of a football match. Progress bar showing time in the game, with markers for goals, yellow & red cards and substitutions.

You know what, Hulu? I don't think I will disable my ad-blocking software. It's almost like it's doing exactly what I want it to do.

Nice work UPS. The package Amazon overnighted me last night? Has been delivered in 2006. Now that is speedy delivery.

Thank you, The Internet, for making it possible for me to see my dogs when we're three time-zones apart. And confuse them by calling their names.

Tucked amongst the usual advertisements, in the current edition of the W33kly D1g. Made me laugh.

(Thanks to Dan for pointing this out to me)

Since NESN isn't really gonna be an option when we're in SF, I've signed up from the MLB.TV package. Their Mosaic application is pretty cool (if a tad rusty and prone to collapse at the moment) -- you can stream up to six games live to it, and flip the audio between games. Can definitely see hooking this up to the TV later in the season.

The results of sshing to the new Slim Devices Controller remote control.

An instant message I received. Not sure if it's one of my friends being funny, or something more sinister -- either way, I'm not responding!

Looks like switching to a hosted server is already paying off -- Response times for groovymother.com are halved on the new host.

... given this photo is on the How to File a Claim page of my insurance company, doesn't it suggest that these adorable moppets have been injured, possibly fatally, in a car accident?

Just seems grisly to me.

Ouch! My MacBookPro's battery capacity has dropped to 71% -- but it was at 98-ish% before I left for this trip and used my laptop on battery power on the airplane and yesterday at BarCampBlock.

I suspect that I should be able to get the battery replaced at the Apple Store under warranty -- 30% capacity drop after 17 loadcycles doesn't sound right at all.

Social bookmark links have appeared at the bottom of BBC News reports.

This is the first time I've seen Microsoft's Flash-killer Silverlight plugin used on a genuine, non-Microsoft-demo website. MLB are using it to play video.

(Incidentally, how much do I regret deciding to favour getting sleep over finishing watching the game last night? Stupid west-coast games)
