And I have to tell you all that these bite sized talks from the worlds great thinkers are as thought provoking as they are entertaining. go and watch http://www.ted.com then leave a comment and tell me what you think.

I-Tunes Sucks

Feeling a little torn today I love my Ipod it is sleek sexy and even smells good (that’s another story) But I can only interface with it through Itunes. and that program is a slug. oh and don’t get me started on the DRM. It’s like I have this 57 gibson Les Paul in mint condition and I keep it in a cardboard box taped together with duct tape. Or a brand new Porche Boxter that I keep parked under a sappy walnut tree in late summer. I have only ever purchaced 3 songs that I have downloaded from Itunes (free cards from starbucks) I don’t need or desire the itunes store. I wish I had a simpler interface like I had with my i-River you plug it in and it looks like a hard drive to your computer and you just drag the friggin files to it. SIMPLE. ArRg!
