My oggwear bag arrived today, it's bright yellow with a xiph fish on it, and it rocks.

This afternoon I went to a lecture about Public Enemy and the history of hop hop, by Miguel de Souza. It was pretty interesting; my cs lecturers never brought turntables. We introduced him to Scrubby before that and he's threatening to tell a bunch of local DJs and journos; hooray :)

Innovation happens on Linux

Hey, I know I shouldn't get worked up about this kind of stuff but Steve Ballmer's recent comments about "no innovation happens on Linux" really piss me off. Obviously he's inciting us to be more vocal about our innovations, and to make the world at large know that we're not just cloning the crap that's already out there. It'll take more than just ranting on web pages -- we need to play the PR game even more so than we are already doing, we need to keep on writing world class code and just letting people know what's going on.

Sweep

I think mp3 importing is just about ready to go ... gotta fix up some random recording bugs that pia and jdub picked up on on saturday. Gotta keep the neighbours awake somehow :)
