super news
I was in a Social Media workshop last week and this video was shown as a sort-of joke... however it highlights both realities and misperceptions about the superfluousness of Twitter and twatting. BTW: HERE IS ME ON TWITTER

Jeff Mix Podcast. I donät know how I ended up subscribing to the JeffMix podcast, and it is often cheezy, but how much to I love the best of 2009 mix? So much. It includes Swedes Museum of Bellas Artes and Miike Snow, “Tonight’s Today” by Jack Peñate and then of course Passion Pit whom I now love. Great to listen to on the train in the morning.

NOTE: this post is fairly dull. Just me thinking out-loud.
Lately... I've noticed a marked downturn in my interest in both politics and music, (two things I was very passionate about for years and years)... I don't really get it... is it burnout or is my body/brain chemistry changing? I turn 30 this year... no idea.
About 6-8 months ago I cancelled my subscription to the Rachael Maddow podcast, then about a month ago I realised that I hadn't checked news online... well, I couldn't actually remember the last time I'd gone to bbc or whatever to simply see what is going on in the world. I'm still an avid NPR listener, and I absorb a lot of that information- which I still think is the best way to get the news -via audio- because it lets you do just about anything else at the same time (i.e. wash dishes, shower, commute...)
UPDATE: Ok, this post is still pretty boring. Did a commute practice run today- as of Monday it will take me at least 1.5 hours each way to and from work... so, I'm going to come armed with all the unheard podcasts and unread books my person can handle.
I wish I could watch some Olympics but it is just not at all in any way possible... like, really, I can't think of any way to make that happen (unless I sought out a sports bar...?) Hurrrm... can I video podcast the Olympics?

Toyota recall... as the Toyota brake failure recall / problem unfolds I just can't help but think about that dialogue from Fight Club:
"Narrator: A new car built by my company leaves somewhere traveling at 60 mph. The rear differential locks up. The car crashes and burns with everyone trapped inside. Now, should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don't do one.
Woman on plane: Are there a lot of these kinds of accidents?
Narrator: You wouldn't believe.
Woman on plane: Which car company do you work for?
Narrator: A major one"

Sooo... I'm blogging for the 6th Annual Berlin Director's Lounge which opened tonight, and although many of the entries were so-so, where were such gems as Sebastien Wolf & Tinka Stock's Bob Log III encounters big problems in the Black Forest while trying to knock over sleeping cows. wow.
