Well, I've got some thoughts for you today about some different things. First off, I think you guys should all go check out Nick Megalis. He's an extremely talented musician from Cleveland. I found him last night and have pretty much listened to his songs on myspace over and over again. He's got a new album out called Praise Be Hype Machine. I intend to actually BUY this cd (which, it's been a few years since I've bought a cd) along with the new Ghost Town Trio. After I do and give them a listen, maybe I'll write a review and post it here. Alright next up I'm gonna tell you guys about a neat little program I stumbled upon called Twitter. It's very similar to status updates on myspace and facebook, but it has quite an edge over them. You display it on your page and then you can set it up to watch your friends, so basically you can chat via twitter. Also, you can update via text message (SMS) and receive your friend's updates the same way. It's a really cool bit of software and I think everyone should get one.
