Grooveshark

A couple of years ago I played around with Grooveshark but never really used it that much. Back in February Lifehacker had a ‘High Five’ for the best music streaming services and since I just installed windows 7 I am going to try and go without installing a media player (other than Zune which I only use for syncing). I decided to try out Grooveshark again. I noticed that on Lifehacker they listed VIP premiums from other sites but left out the VIP features of Grooveshark. I made a comment about this and was kindly gifted a year of premium service from Grooveshark. Some of the major premium features of Grooveshark VIP are Grooveshark Desktop application, mobile application and 50000 songs in your library. I love the Grooveshark Desktop application because it doesn’t require me to have my web browser open but still stream music. This is random ramblings but I thought that it bares mentioning how cool Grooveshark is and how generous they are for giving me a year of VIP service for a simple comment.

Google Business Cards

Today my Google business cards came in the mail! If you missed it early last week Google had a promotion for their Google Profiles that you could get 25 free business cards. So why not sign up when Google is giving away free stuff right? Anyways mine came in the mail today and they are pretty decent, not as durable as my regular business cards, but you can’t really complain when they are free! You can check out my Google Profile here.

Twitter

Yes I caved, I am now on twitter. I resisted for so long because I didn’t see the point to it. I still don’t see the exact point of it, but hey I twitter now. I have found some interesting people to follow, Adam Savage, Grant Imahara, Emma Stone, Weird Al Yankovic, and Riann Wilson. So far it seems pretty much like Facebook status updates but quicker and shorter. Anyways now I’m on twitter, so you can follow me and stalk me and find out what I’m doing with my life here. Now you won’t see me twittering all day, but occasionally I show up there or twitter from the disc golf course, whenever I remember to do it. I currently twitter from Digsby and text messages so you can find me anywhere.

This You-tube video sums up Twitter pretty well…

Time for Change

This past Sunday the Simpsons was shown for the first time in HD. It was also debuted a new intro for the first time in 19 years.

There has been a lot of hatred for the new episodes of the Simpsons saying that they changed and not for the better. However I still feel that there is some entertainment in the Simpsons and would rather watch the new episodes rather then Family Guy or American Dad. Of course if they get rid of the Simpsons they need to bring back Futurama.
