March 2007

Fujoshi I'll admit it-from time to time I come up with some really good analogies. No, I'm not one of the more famous blog/vlog/podcast pundits... I am however able to speak my mind and have a sense of humor (yes, very warped). I was just prompted by another new-media creature friend (one that I even met [...]

Yes, I am using MOG and it bills itself as a "musical nudist colony." Whatever that means. In fact I think this site has much to offer (I've been using for a day so I'm still learning) and uses it's xml tools to link up info from your song files (in your hard drive via [...]

Geeking Out…

03.29.2007 by Mark Forman

Uhoh-I usually snicker at my friends geekery but... I have to give credit where it's due. Firefox browser 2.0.0.3 with cool iris previews (allows me to go deeper into windows by mouse touching-kind of like Snap...) and Foxy Tunes-lets me control ITunes from browser menu with extensive functions. I dig it. Lest I forget-Google's web tools [...]

Platinum Jamendo-Woot!

03.28.2007 by Mark Forman

I use Jamendo from time to time since entire catalogue is free and all CC licensed. I received e-mail from them today that they have reached their 1 millionth download of their albums (almost said record-it is a digital album and record I guess). Kudos Jamendo on getting out so much music to so many [...]

Ya know yesterday when I read this post I almost trackbacked to it and didn't. Now...well all I can say it shows some of the significant power and mobility of new media.

The more things change…

03.26.2007 by Mark Forman

The music business is becoming a singles oriented affair (consumer-friendly freedom of choice model) shifting away from the album format(push model record company forces consumer to buy collection of songs for bundled sale). In essence the listening of recorded music has [...]

Non-sequiturial ping-pong(aka:Twitter)

03.23.2007 by Mark Forman

Tales of an LA Addict I fired a salvo at my boy Brad P about "egg creams," he of course responded and tagged me back with "Scruffy the Cat." For those of you who don't know about Scruffy they were one hell of a live act whose record was just "ok" IMHO. I imagine there are [...]

4 Dozen Approaches….

03.22.2007 by Mark Forman

something.in.my.eye Well just a couple of days away from #48. The numbers don't mean anything anymore. Every birthday is a cause for celebration. It is a reminder that I am alive and have much to be thankful for, starting out with a life to live. Nah, not preaching any Jonathan Livingston Seagull kind of philosophy. [...]
