“The world looks so different from up here”
Jay-Z is cool. Coldplay are living legends. Now, the allegeable famous mixtape circuits, Mick Boogie and Terry Urban, have released an entire album of mash-ups between the two artists. I like it.
The album is available for free at www.vivalahova.com.
Our society has come very far. Freak shows previously only playing in environments I would never dear to seek out are now available through a totally safe channel: Tha internet. Please take a moment to study this piece of freak show-genious:
I hope this is not common practice for all law school students, Thomas…
Today is a merry day, ’cause today Bloc Party’s newest album, Intimacy, hits the store shelves. Yaay!
Intimate enough for you?

I love useless statistics, and in that spirit I’ve been using Last.fm for over a year now to keep track of my music listening history. Not only does it log what I listen to at what time, but it also uses the information it stores, my musical preferences, to recommend new artists and songs. It even creates an “internet radio station” based on my profile, making it possible for me to listen to my kind of music everywhere, as long as I got an internet connection (Great to use at work!). Sadly I haven’t configured it properly to log songs played on my ipod, so the statistics is somewhat twisted, both in magnitude and accuracy.
Anywayz! I just discovered LastGraph, a “a web-based service that aims to give you a new way to explore your last.fm listening history”. Appealing. The biggest treat of LastGraph is the graph it outputs. Try it for yourself, and be astonished by it’s greatness.
My listening history late 07
I must admit that I, and probably some of the the other bohemians, thought keeping a blog fresh, exciting and up to date with several posts a week would be an easy task. I was wrong. I don’t think we got any good excuses for not blogging, but I guess it’s mainly because all of us may be categorized as lazy bums. Plomma, the one of us most eager to create a blog, hasn’t even made a single blogpost yet. GG.
Lately I’ve been spending most of my time programming (Shocker, knowing I’m a computer science student). Lots of time and energy has gone into writing a proprietary chatprogram, both server and client-side. I’m pretty proud of the resulting application, even though it’s not completely done yet. The client can be downloaded from the site of the software developing group I’m currently a part of: beeware.no (don’t understand Norwegian? Try the Google-translated version!). There’s currently only one chatserver up and running, but I will release the server-app shortly so the people may host their own MNC-ChatServers :p
But beware. Beeware is far more then the host of a simple chat client. We’re currently in the process of developing a next-generation MMO (Many Men Online) called Mannen. The first screenshot has just been released, and you, dear reader, are among the first in the world watching what Mannen will look like when it’s released. Congratulations.
The two intrepid adventurers advanced on the room of oblique horrors, source of all mystical anatomical mythology, location of aparati to which mankind has sold his soul for decades; ready to be tested in their zeal for all things good and healthy. Their dedication stalwart, their hearts shrouded in the armour of contempt, Anderspus and Plomma stood perched on the ledge, a mere step - a mile if it was an inch - away from purchasing the final leap at what might possibly be the ultimate price. They were on their way to a spinning class.
This is frightening. The last part of Prof. Daniel Nicholaus Nilssen long gone journal, deliberately described in Nights’ blogpost, truly resembles my own happenings of last weekend. It’s as if history repeats itself down to every gritty little detail.
Saturday 26. August (even the date fits!), me and my homedogs Daniel and Sigve got in the car for a 3,5 hour long drive from Tromsø to Narvik, to catch living legends Kaizers Orchestra in concert. The road trip will forever stick in my memory as an epic tale. Yes, I promise you; The experience was so pure and fun that I’m farting rainbows as I write this down.
But, since the tale has already been told with much finer words than I will ever be able to scribble, I’ won’t bother you with more words. But you may want to take a look at these pictures!
I love people that can take such perspectives on things
Oh and pssst… do something !
