Cheaters are Losers
April 10, 2002 by Eric Richardson
As you probably know, I put the papers I write online in the papers section of verbal intercourse. I do this because I believe in the free exchange of information. However, the newest entry in verbal, an IM exchange I've titled Cheaters are Losers, shows that sometimes not everyone holds the same ideals.
some fun song stats
April 09, 2002 by Eric Richardson
So tonight I ran a little SQL query to figure out what I've listened to most since whatsplaying started on February 25. There are 72 distinct bands logged so far. The results for most plays were slightly surprising. Click the title to view them... — Continue Reading...
1000 songs in whatsplaying
April 09, 2002 by Eric Richardson
So tonight I hit 1000 songs in my little what's playing database. Song number 1000 was Dave Matthews - Raven from the April 4 show in DC.
As whatsplaying gets more songs in it, the stats it gives start to become more interesting. For instance, I've played Barenaked Ladies - Giant Guitars (04-19-96) three times, and two of them have been at 4:23pm and 4:24pm. Is there something that makes this the right song for that point in the afternoon? Coming soon: stats on what plays most often, and the ability to see what songs were around each play of a song.
tv shows

This weekend I decided that my favorite show on TV right now is SO Graham Norton on BBC America. I remember him being funny in an older British sitcom I watched on PBS, but I'm too lazy to look up the name right now. In any case, he's hilarious and his guests are too. For those wondering, this replaces Elimidate, which held my favorite show standing for only a few weeks. Previous title holders include The X Show (before the original hosts left and it started sucking), and The Daily Show.
posting via WAP
April 08, 2002 by Eric Richardson
So I spent a bit of tonight trying to make it so that I can post here via my cell phone and WAP. I really don't know if this will be any use to me, but for some reason I really think I'll be unhappy with myself if I lack it. I'm not sure why that is, or whether that's a good thing. I guess it would be cool to have a log for stripped-down wireless posts. We'll see what happens. This is all thanks to eThreads 2.0 and the ability to run multiple looks per glomule.
