In honor of Muxtape

August 30th, 2008 · No Comments · Personal

It’s a pity the MPAA had to go and waste their time taking a great site like Muxtape offline, but it’s still nice to see the hydra rear its head in the form of Opentape. In either case, I won’t be hosting my Opentape on my site (just yet), but I will post my list [...]

The Evernote experiment

August 28th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Study

Still don’t know about The Dark Knight.

August 13th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Personal

So Laura & I ventured forth this evening to see one of the most hyped-up movies of the year: The Dark Knight. Unfortunately, it may have been a little over-hyped. A little. We both went into the movie expecting to be totally blown away by what people have been telling us about it, and we [...]
