The post you've been holding your breath for

So I’ve spent all week putting off working on my final. Not that it’s hard, I’m just so ready to be done with this semester. The professor even posted it a week early, but I guess I’ll spend the weekend working on it.

A few things I’ve been meaning to post about:

Geocaching – As a little early Christmas present to myself, I bought a TomTom GPS package complete with bluetooth receiver and TomTom software for my Treo 650. I’m don’t really travel all that much and I don’t get lost much, but with a GPS you can go Geocaching. It’s like a high-tech treasure hunt. Check the link for more info.

Johnathan Coulton – This guy rocks. Some of my favorite songs are Chiron Beta Prime, Code Monkey, and Re Your Brains. I also discovered there’s a whole sub-genre for this type of music and it’s called Nerdcore. Awesome!

Last.fm – I found a plug-in for last.fm which scrobbles the songs I played on my iPod. Obviously, I don’t listen to much music sitting at my computer so last.fm just got 100% interesting to me. Oh, I have no friends on last.fm, do anyone want to be my friend?

Google Hacks review
– Yeah, I know. It should have been up several months ago. I hope I haven’t pissed off O’Reilly by not following through with this one.

Travian – Fun little Ajax-ified real-time browser strategy game I’m playing with some friends. The server we’re playing on resets December 22nd. Come and join us.

Movies – Now that I made it through both seasons of Lost and I upped Netflix to 3 movies-at-a-time, I’m starting to get some cool movies. Most recently I watched Basic which was a little hard to believe but the plot was entertaining.

I guess that’s about it for now. Once finals are through, I hope to post more. :)
