I had an interesting conversation with a friend the other day. I asked if he thought there would ever be another Great Band: The Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin we mostly agreed on. We talked about lots: Nirvana? U2? Maybe we just count everyone who has a box set. It didn’t matter: I couldn’t really imagine any of the bands I listen to being remembered.

I changed my mind today, three things happened:

1. I caught up with my podcasts this morning and heard npr listeners choose In Rainbows for album of the year on all songs considered
2. I put In Rainbows on the stereo and remembered again how good it is.
3. I picked up the new Wired read David Byrne’s interview and article about Radiohead and the future of music.

That last one tipped the scales.

I remember Colin saying he didn’t like the new Radiohead album much, but for whatever reason I think they’re our Great Band.

Everyone I know uses iterm

After upgrading to Leopard I noticed that the new Terminal.app has tabs! ... And a cleaner look. Also, key combos for switching between open tabs make more sense in Terminal than they do in iTerm.

I just deleted iTerm from my applications folder.

If I hadn’t thrown my iPhone up into the air to spin, flip, THUNK on the concrete, and break I’d be more excite about this.
