This Week on iTunes

Thanks to those who have pointed out that I'm behind in my baseball blog... been too busy watching baseball to write about baseball but there are 3 entries on their way. Until then, this is for Patient Ken. This week on iTunes is actually not an iTunes thing but a website that's perfect for me right now since my desire for new music is at odds with deadlines and work. Pandora.com allows you to explore new music based on your music preferences; you can also refine your preferences and set up stations for different kinds of music preferences or moods. Right now, while prepping for some classes, I'm listening to a Thievery Corporation station. I've also got a Paul Weller station set up and a few others. It's a pretty darn cool way of learning about new music AND being productive at work. Hurrah! In a similar vein, LivePlasma is pretty neat for music and now movies: it calls itself a Discovery Engine.
