iPods and iDiots

Other people seem to be using their blog as an avenue to promote their music, or at the very least provide a forum for people (i.e. no one) to talk about music which they enjoy or like listening to.

Our London rail network has a free newspaper called the Metro, and in it their is a section called On My iPod, in which celebrities (usually vapour-heads with something to promote) recount what is on their iPod, but they are only to choose 5 songs. Which is odd, because I always though iPods could carry more than just 5 songs! Plus are you really sure EVERY famous celebrity has an iPod and ACTUALLY uses it. I mean it takes a certain amount of PC acumen to actually load music onto one.

Still, out of completeness I am not going to be telling you what is on my iPod, but more importantly what I listened to on the way into work.

1) Porcupine Tree - Deadwing - progressive pop rock from the UK masters

2) Steve Roach - Core - a one man aural equivalent of a universe - highly desire-ably listening pleasure.

When I encounter grown sane people who actually have a problem surfing the internet in so much as they don't understand what a URL or an Address bar is, I get worried especially when they start asking me questions about starting up an Internet Business.
