aural pleasures and site updates
Changes abound tonight here on the jlb.to site. Music, quote, photo, and
more.
First, I added a thing at the top of the main jlb.to page that displays
the current song I'm listening to. Well, it works if I'm listening to
music on my home computer... It doesn't follow me in the car (where I
listen to a lot of the local AM news station anyway) or anywhere I take my
iPod or PowerBook (for now anyway).
Shortly, there will also be a list of the previous 10 tracks iTunes has
played for me. I usually listen to my entire MP3 library on shuffly play,
so the list of tracks will usually be rather random. I often skip through
some songs at the beginning, looking for something other than the dozen or
so tracks of

Who I have that, for some reason, always seem to be playing.
Also, you need iTunes installed
for the links to the song, album, and artist to work properly.
I also put a thing at the top of the right column that shows the
approximate times that this blog has been updated. Hence, "blogtimes."
I refreshed the quotation marks quote and put up a different photo over
there as well.
That photo is from Egg Harbor, Wisconsin on July 3, 2003, just before the
village's annual fireworks display. The photos of the actual fireworks did
not turn out so well as I was just holding the camera in my hands. Well,
maybe next year I'll get a tripod and a remote shutter and do it the right
way. Maybe...
Anyway, that about sums up the changes for tonight. It's quite a lot
(plust three new entries in the past couple of days!), so I'm calling it a
night and going to check out what Tivo has to offer.
