Good advice. I started another blog at the same time as Lifestream Blog but shut it down a few months in. I only manage 2 personal sites now and even that is tough.
- Mark Krynsky
thanks Mark. I'd been meaning to write this post for a little while now cause I've seen more than a few people talk about the feelings they were having trying to keep up with more than one blog. As well as I said in the post I have also gone through the same type of feelings so after a fashion this was a way for me to get some things straight in my own head.

"It has certainly got itself into a tight squeeze, but the world's smallest car has every right to be there. Tucked in between two vans in London's Piccadilly Circus, the Peel P50 is parked squarely by its new home. The miniature vehicle goes on display today at Ripley's Believe It Or Not! Museum, which promises visitors the ultimate insight into the world of the odd and bizarre."

I would turn that car over on it's side just trying to get in it.
- Derrick
that's awesome. i'm assuming it's electric, but i'll have a looksee
- docrivs
actually... i learned it's not electric. there were only 50 made in between '62 and '65, and it reportedly gets 83mpg on a tiny gasoline engine with a manual trans that doesn't go into reverse. it can supposedly top out at 61mph. awesome car! i have to see one up close and personal. who's got one??

This was on an episode of Top Gear. It was hilarious to see Jeremy Clarkson drive it around *inside* the BBC offices.

Trance is a good analog for orchestral with modern instruments.

Hey - don't dis @louisgray's music. He and I were jamming to it at Blogworld Expo last month.
- Jesse Stay
OMG Jesse, you listen to trance too?! :O WOW
- Mona Nomura
Mona you'd be surprised what I listen to - I listen to just about everything. I find myself liking Techno/Trance/anything with a beat much more than others though.

@Mona: I'm amazed that some people listen heavy metal (or its variations) - but hey, it's their loss ;)
- Jemm
Oh, he hates trance AND speed metal. Considers them both "noise."

Little does he know that you're a goddess Cyndy. A GODDESS!

The only snark I can think of is overly anti-religious
- Jason Carreira
LOL Took you long enough, Jason! And this is my feed -- it's the most un PC place ever. (as long as you don't insult bacon, LEGO, or Star Wars I think we're ok ;) HA)
- Mona Nomura
Yeah, I was shocked when I saw @louisgray's playlists. Then again, people get confused with mine too. Just look at my Pandora feed...Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Crystal Method, Fat Boy Slim...
- Rob Diana
Cyndy: WTF is Shoegaze. SHOEGAZE? HAHA @Rob: Fat Boy Slim? :O WOW I'm learning A LOT today.
- Mona Nomura
Bring it on Mona. Who's up for clubbing? 1015 Folsom, Ms. Mona?
- Louis Gray
1015?! LG! LOL!! Then End-up after? Wow - you're bringing back memories!!
- Mona Nomura
OK Mona, how about Fluke, Tiesto, NIN, Pendulum, the Pauls (van Dyke and Oakenfold) and for some funk, Prince and Parliament. I don't really do traditional rock music :) And I will meet you all at Webster Hall when you come to the right coast.

this "writer" needs to get slamdanced on. what a twit

I was suggested a newish band to check out recently and so listened to a live performance mp3. First song was ok. But then in stage banter betwixt tunes, the lead talked about the awesomeness of Queen in a snarky way and then went out of his way to ensure the crowd knew he was being sarcastic. I didn't listen further to see if they were any good ;)
- Michael W. May
I have this CD I burned. I call it "THE FUDGE PACK". got all of Bowie, Freddie and Lou Reed on it. I listen to it all of the time. Especially when I'm online bashing fags. Am I allowed to say that? oops blocked again. drat
- Noah David Simon
seriously... Freddie is the coolest. I like his music more than any other rocker. I listen to his stuff over and over again. and in all honesty... if he were alive and looking like he did... I might of dated him
- Noah David Simon
MWM, whoever that band was, they suck. ;)

"I'm annoyed with Google at the moment -- it is spamming me with intrusive Google Toolbar adverts on its main page -- so I might just give a rival a try. One launched today is called Cuil (or "cool"), which is "an old Irish word for knowledge," says the site. This is different from Google in that it displays results in two or three columns (thus reducing what on Google amounts to "the tyranny of the top hit"), quotes enough content to be useful, has an illustration with each entry, and does some clustering, It also claims to focus on content. The site says:"

Is Zannel a good Twitter alternative? I think people should look at it. I really like it. It has the best features of all the microbloggings apps: commenting,... - http://www.zannel.com/index...
I meant to say that it has commenting, video, pictures, and of course text. It won the webby award for the best mobile social network. Now it just needs a vibrant community.
- Sam Guzman
SMS side during the sign up is the deal killer. Won't work internationally. Won't be a winner. Period.
- Robert Sanzalone
".. and of course text" I think that's the problem actually. Why is text last? People will ignore the words and just watch the pictures. Also, does the service send video and photo via SMS back to users? ... That said, it looks like it could be excellent as a photo moblog platform that's easy to set up and throw in a blog sidebar.
- Phil G
I like the idea of pure microblogging, but sometimes a picture really is worth a 1000 words. And a video is worth even more. Especially when I am away from home and want to share things with loved ones.
- Sam Guzman
@Phil To answer you question, the text is just as meaningful as the words. You don't always need to send a picture, but it is nice to have the option. And no, they don't send pictures and videos back to you via SMS.
