Black Devil Doll (Not Safe For You Anywhere). There is nothing right about this at all. And, of course I want to see every minute of it.

have I said recently how much I adore skitch? about 11 hours ago from twitterrific

trying out this friendfeed joint. I'm not sure how it's different from plaxo pulse but I'll give it a shot. about 10 hours ago from twitterrific

It was a "fun with the internetz" day. Quotably really is great for following a twitter conversation. Especially if you don't follow all the people who are talking with the person driving the convo. I used it several times today. Tweetburner launched today too but I haven't really checked it out yet.

Skitch is kind of a killer App (mac only). I'm here.

As Mau pointed out to me, the big thing about friendfeed may be that it makes facebook updating a passive activity. (Yeah, I'm back on facebook after a 2 month hiatus. Sigh.)

I also really like drop.io.

Is Anybody Listening

Danity Kane

Hoping to get to know each other better, the guys and girls jump in a limo for a night out at on the town. The drive is filled with awkward silence, but once at the club, everyone starts to loosen up. After a round of shots, Aubrey and Donnie start dirty dancing and Dawn and Qwanell get flirty. Stay focused, guys!

The next day brings all the Making the Band 4 participants back together for the first day of recording. The girls nail a song called "Is Anybody Listening," proving that they already have a winning formula in place.

I Like Giants

Kimya Dawson

Kimya Dawson is most famous (in my mind) for being the fantastically charismatic folk singer from Olympia who once photographed her own poop and posted it on her MySpace. She's also an honest and bright songwriter who plays joyful acoustic guitar while singing optimistic and sometimes weird songs. While you drive to Kent, think of the opening lines to "I Like Giants"—"When I go for a drive/I like to pull off to the side/of the road/turn out the lights/get out and look up at the sky/And I do this to remind me that I'm really, really tiny/in the grand scheme of things/and sometimes this terrifies me."

Song of the Week:

Another Day

Jamie Lidell

With all the music I bought last week in a sneeze-filled haze, the song of note comes from an impromptu video chat with Felicia and her gracious file sharing. I remember being underwhelmed with Jamie Lidell's Multiply so I was prepared to find his new album nice but forgettable. This track is far from that. A bright and shiny blast of soul, this is a song you put on first thing in the morning. I might have an inexplicable love for my Danity Kane girls but I know serious music when I hear it and this is mixtape worthy now and will likely be 5 years from now.

Wake up!
