I think I am an early riser who is trapped in the body of someone who likes to stay up late.
I hadn’t noticed, but the Oddpost development group has been maintaining a blog with Radio. It’s a great source of information on what they have been working on, and what they have fixed.
Between now and it’s release August 7th, Aimee Mann has her new CD, Lost in Space, available via streaming audio from her Web site. My initial listen leaves me quite happy, her last CD, Bachelor Number 2, is still one of my favorite listens. I’m not sure why you can only listen to one song at a time though, it is sort of annoying to have to keep clicking back over to the browser window and selecting the next song. Oh, and make sure you click around on the sky portion of the page, there are some bonus tracks hidden there which are also quite good.
Here’s the EFF’s list of connection(read Wi-Fi) sharing friendly ISP’s. I think we should, whenever possible, avoid the ISP’s that don’t allow this.
I’ve been using O’Reilly’s Safari service for the last few days on a trial basis(they offer a 14 day trial.) For someone like me, who buys a lot of computer books and is constantly referring to them on various projects, this service, which lets you subscribe to ten books online and read them from any internet connected machine, is ideal. It saves me from having to carry books to and from work every day, and the search feature means that I can see which books contain information relevant to my current problem or project. In the three days that I have been using the service, I have already done this at least ten times. The books available are not confined to the valuable O’Reilly books, but there are books from a bunch of technology publishing companies. At $14.99 a month for ten books, I think this service is a bargain, but I think they could do us all one better. I think the service would be even better if, when you buy a book from O’Reilly that is offered on Safari, you should get a serial number or unique indentifier that can be used to activate that book on Safari at no charge. That way I wouldn’t be paying for books that I want paper copies of twice, I would get used to using the service so that I would want more books that I hadn’t bought paper copies of. A win-win in my opinion, I wonder who at O’Reilly I should send an email to with this suggestion?
