Dexter

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

Totally hooked on this show. Just finished Season 1 and got blown away. Who would have thought I’d fall in love with a show whose main character is a serial killer. Way to go, Showtime.

And thank goodness Netflix lets you watch instantly!

Amazon MP3 Specials

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

After snagging Radiohead’s monumental “OK Computer” for $1.99*, I decided I’d pay a little more attention to our friends at Amazon who apparently know how to make a sale and have decent taste in music.

I scoured their site to see if they had an RSS feed for this page but I was unsuccessful in said search. That’s sad, but apparently the geeks over at Yahoo! Pipes put together an RSS feed for us all to enjoy.**

* These MP3s are 256kbps and NO DRM. I love Apple and iTunes, but this is way better.

** I’ve been using Pipes a lot lately to assist in some web app writing, I love it.

A great, thoughtful poster that blends typefaces’ names with movie names. I only wish they listed all of them on the site AND that it wasn’t sold out! 2001: A Monospace Odyssey is brilliant.
