whoohoo! more on the hey ya meme! hey ya video games! (whoohoo! there’s even a little cameo by the peanut butter jelly time banana)

dj miss bliss will be playing at mighty tonight at 10, as part of the scion emerging artists tour. she’s gonna be at loft 11 tomorrow — mixed elements is throwing that party.. i’ll be going tonight since i’m really not supposed to go out, in preparation for the wildflower tri this weekend.. technically, i’m not even supposed to go out tonight, but what the hell.. miss bliss ROCKS.

Man.. i want a driving range.. now, all you have to do is write a good essay (and pay the $200 entry fee)… At Home on the Range, Paul Changes His Course (washingtonpost.com)

whatismyip.com.. now that’s damn handy.

friendster + your cellphone = dodgeball. neat concept, but i don’t know if i want to spend time building YASN. but.. i DO like their sample image on the homepage… apparently i know amanda through sally!

ooo. nifty. need a roadsign? make one.

[thanks doug]

protect your banana!

[thanks aj's status!]

check out this flash game “break in the road“.. you wander around town recording sounds around the city, and then mix them into a track.. pretty awesome.

[thanks mike!]

so this weekend, i started seriously considering getting cable since i’m feeling like i’m missing out on all sorts of good stuff after about 2 years of not having cable… apparently, this thought was well timed, since it’s now tv turnoff week! yay! does this mean it’s tivo turnoff week too?

the memespread project. neat.

found this link over at kottke’s.. it’s an interesting post about how this dude jeffrey veen “stopped buying cds and started loving music”. i’ve never heard of metacritic, and upon initial glance, it looks like yet another site that i’ll regularly visit (as if i don’t already consume enough media).. i do, however, slightly disagree with his notion that “labels” are unneccessary… i think that there’s definitely a shift happening — not everyone wants to go out and do the real legwork involved in discovering new music. i think the music mavens out there need a good way to publish their latest finds and playlists.. and then the masses will follow.. ok, i’m just rambling here. i’ll think about this some more, but i’m sleepy. ooo, here’s another interesting post about the music industry, triggered by the whole “grey album” thing that happened a few months ago. mash-up is getting huge. i mean, i’m finding that whenever i play a bootleg at one of my gigs, people really gravitate towards the dancefloor since it’s familiar…

whoohoo! mother’s day gifts at mySimon!

Windows noises, remixed? made entirely in SNDREC32.EXE.. who needs Apple Garage Band anyway?

Interesting… but, if he’s really good, he’ll make a mash-up of David Bowie’s new songs, and win himself a car.

[thanks doug]

so, i heard this piece on NPR about the soundtracks nominated for academy awards like a few months ago, and can’t stop thinking about it for some reason, and today, i bought the soundtracks to both big fish, and cold mountain, as a result..

what was great about this NPR piece was that basically you were sitting with the NPR music critic, Andy Trudeau as he analyzed the music… very engaging.. and as a result, i can’t stop thinking about it (and consequently, bought the cds)..

this is what dan messaged to me while we were both sitting in a meeting today at work.

from the WMC in miami a few weeks ago… i didn’t take nearly enough pictures, but mixed|elements did.. here’s my fav

found at yizzle.com. thanks andy.

NPR did a great April Fools’ piece yesterday about “Portable Zip Codes” — hilarious. Go Postal!
