So along with the new Zunes and new Zune software they came out with a better Zune Social.

This is my Zune card here (I tried to embed it but it was to big ).

A Zune card is part of the new Zune Social website (my link here). Its pretty cool it shows the last played songs and how many plays you did. When you hook your Zune into your computer or wireless sync it it updates your Zune card with the last songs you played on your Zune device. However it doesn’t update your play count. I don’t really think the social is really going to catch on but its ok because its pretty cool to put on myspace and my website. Its free to anybody that wants it but you have to download and use the Zune software (here). Anyways feel free to add me as a friend.

So yesterday the New Zunes and Zune software came out. Now I thought that the old Zune software was horrible but the new software has its problems as well. The new software is a lot eaiser to use and I like the new search and customization of the background. Here is the old software: This is the new software: As you can see they are drastically different. Now I think that the new software is easier to use and easier to navigate through the artists and albums. However on the downside is you lost a lot of editing with music tags and album art. For example I have The Rolling Stones 500 Greatest songs and its listed by the different artists so when I select all the different artists with the same album name I can’t apply the same album art so I have to do it individually. Same thing with changing the song artists. For people who had a generation 1 Zune also got the new Zune firmware. The new Zune firmware is pretty nice and it comes with a lot of upgrades. Right off the bat theres a new interface and menu system. Now the new interface is a lot bigger and easy to read, its also a lot faster to use. Now the Zune also supports podcasts which I guess is nice I don’t know a lot of podcasts but maybe I’ll get hooked on them. The newest feature that is that theres wireless syncing which is pretty nice. It does take a little bit out of the battery but is convenient if your not near your computer, being in a small apartment I don’t really see a use for it because I can just walk 5 steps and plug it in. It does however free up a USB slot which is nice since those are at a premium. Coming tomorrow: The Zune Social

So I got bored and decided that what I was thinking was pretty cool so I figured I would make a blog. It will also help with my typing because I can only type about 30 wpm. So anyways this is just random thoughts and articles that I found around around the interwebs.
