We’ve passed the half way point of the academic summer and my ‘Summer of websites’ is coming along well. I just sent the second of three sites are now released into the world.
This one is an mp3 store for one of my favorite bands/artists – Bill Mallonee and the Vigilantes of Love. In an effort to get an extensive back catalog into distribution again, I took all 15 of his studio albums and put them up as mp3s (320Kbps VBR).
The php script I used is the 1-2-3 Music Store from Easybe.com. It’s good, in fact it works really well for this application, but a caveat is that the documentation is sparse; you need to do some digging to make it work for you. Not bad, but there is some feeling of accomplishment that comes with making something work, I think, well.
Anyway, let me know what you think. I know a few of you all are VOL fans, so enjoy!

Another Apple store (aka the borg cube) opened yesterday in NYC. Check out the video from the opening day of the store; it’s kind of ineresting just how many people are still out at 4 a.m. I especially enjoy the 5 a.m. hour. Wait for a minute and watch the screen; I hope she said ‘yes’.
‘Friends in Christ’ made in China??

I wish I had a ‘weird’ catagory. The link above is from dof and is of a pencil we found. The pencil’s inscription is ‘Friends in Christ’. The pencil’s manufacturer? Written on the pencil are the words ‘Made in China’. Fill in your own joke about incongruity.
