An Uncessary, Detailed History of My Cellphones

I like cellphones. Best digital “appliance” since the computer in my opinion. And it’s amazing how far cellphones have come over the years.

Tim Burton and The Chocolate Factory

I just sent Harry Knowles an email concerning this because I haven’t read anything about it…ever.

Normally, I would be very excited about it but I lost some of my admiration for Burton after Planet of The Apes. I just hope he’ll be able to hold his own against the Hollywood suits and make it sick and twisted like I know he wants to do it.

My iTunes Playlist, Live to The World

In a distraction for the paper I need to finish this evening, I finished a little project for the blog. This new feature gives a live report of what song is playing on my computer, as well as the last 15 songs I was listening to. Although it’s probably overkill with the “I was just listening to” on all of my blog entries, I just wanted to see how it works and if I could implement it on ye ol’ blog. Kinda nifty.
