John's Tumblr: Computers = Trucks →
lilly: A couple of years ago at D8, Steve Jobs said on stage something like this: computers as we know them won’t go away, but they won’t be used nearly as much. They’ll be like trucks: most people don’t drive around in them all the time, but they’ll use them for special purposes, to get particular types…

Eminem: 'Not Afraid' To Make Amends →
hitchcock: I must be getting pretty lame these days — I’m learning about new Eminem singles from NPR.  On Eminem’s new single Not Afraid, he drops the following verse: “Let’s be honest / That last Relapse CD was ‘ehh’ / Perhaps I ran those accents into the ground.” Yes, yes you did run those accents into the ground.  It wasn’t cool.  I’m glad you realized this. I don’t think...

Create vs Consume
Lately I’ve been thinking about how much I create vs consume things in my spare time.  What is the ratio?  How often do I write a poem vs watch Hulu?  How would my life be different if I tried to consume less, and make more stuff?

The format lends itself to the information hungry, shallow, skimaholic readers.  I hate skimming, it is a false promise.  You don’t...

Digging for Substance
Last night my friend Tim K and I went digging for vinyl records at Dusty Groove.  I’ve collected vinyl for a while, and Tim is just getting started. I don’t want to debate the sonic properties of vinyl vs digital, but rather examine the listening experience.  I feel like I listen to vinyl records, where mp3s play in the background.  Note the active vs passive nature for the listener....
