mp3 singles, bookmarks

without comments

Thank god for free mp3 singles. I mean, seriously, not just ’cause they are free, but becasue I find more good new bands (and some old) out there for free on the internet, and I buy on average at least one new CD a week because of it. Case and point: I’ve heard a lot of hype about Car Power before, but I never paid much attention because it didn’t seem like it would be my style. This mp3, however, has totally turned me into a fan, and I never would have heard it if it hadn’t been avaliable online for free.

Quickly, I have switched from del.icio.us to Yahoo’s MyWeb for bookmarks, mostly for page caching (which even ignores nocache, unlike Spurl). Just mentioning that in case anyone had the feed bookmarked or something.

Ok, so now that it is officially official and I am on the payroll and stuff, I can announce that I am now an employee of Yelp.com. I am extremely pleased and I think I have finally found a company that I don’t hate working for, and that actually does things on the web that I am proud of. Good times.
