  • Reset

    I've decided that "reset" should be my themeword for 2008, so it only fits that Outkast's "Reset" be my theme song.

    "Start over again
    Everything happens for a reason
    Good doesn’t come without pain"

    One of my favorite lyrics.
  • Lucinda Fest

    21 May 2007, 18:39

    Wondering how long I can stand to listen to one person's voice? 4 hours and counting now...

    In honor of getting Lucinda Williams's new album West yesterday, I just ripped three older albums of hers that I've had for years (so that I now have all eight of her major releases in my iTunes) and am having a Lucinda Fest today.

    The new album seems just OK, but hers usually take a while to sink in for me.

    I loved this entry from the AttentionTrust blog:

    YOU: Wildly successful, attention-data-based startup.

    ME: Passionate advocate for user control of attention data. And a faithful, long-time, admirer from afar. Sure, I've had some issues, but I know we could work it out.

    I've tried to reach you before, but I've never heard back from you. Maybe your admin thinks I'm a stalker? Call me--you won't regret it.
  • Who's paying attention to what you pay attention to?

    Have you ever wondered what last.fm is doing - or wants to do, or could do - with all of this information we are creating here every day?

    Well so has Ed Batista of the Attention Trust. He's set up a new group here for last.fm users who are interested in this issue.

    I hope the group will be a place where we can discuss how our information is used, and how we think it should be used. I really want to encourage everyone to join this group to show how much this matters to us.

    Check out the attention trust last.fm group!
  • How useless is this message from last.fm?

    Some tracks you submitted have not been added to your profile for the following reason:
    The track you submitted appears to be badly tagged - please check the file's tags.


    Since I have been listening to music for the last 2 hours, I could use some kind of HINT about which track has a problem. Otherwise there's nothing I can even do about this.
  • Welcome, neighbors

    27 Jan 2006, 23:13

    I just got new neighbors today!

    After readon that there was some problem with them, I was starting to think I was just stuck with the one batch I got at first.

    However the match percentage still isn't above %20 even in the new batch of neighbors. I guess I'll take that to mean I am unique, which is a good thing.

    I am especially interested in checking out this neighbor's musical tastes: harmolodicnet.

    He has lots of interesting-looking stuff on his list that I've never even heard of, I don't see that much.
