    Listen To The Music

    If you haven't tried out Pandora yet, you're missing out -- it allows me to create personalized streaming "radio stations" with music based on an artist, a song, or a genre.  Then it streams out to my machine any time I want to listen.  Free for now, I assume I'll either pay in the future or it will be supported by selling me the music I listen to.

     

    My list includes Queen, Diana Krall, Dixie Chicks, Mannheim Steamroller and Jimmy Buffett -- but they change daily.  http://feeds.pandora.com/styles/feeds/songs-art-blue.css

    Sony Drops 250,000 Superballs For Commercial

    If you're intested in advertising, take a look at this Sony ad for their new Bravia LCD television.  There's also a lot of information on the making of the commercial that is really fascinating.
     
    It's built on a very simple message:  "Color Like No Other".  The director comments that they didn't really need a script -- it was just "drop superballs at the top of a SanFrancisco street."  My favorite part is the frog -- watch closely.
     
    BTW -- you'll need Quicktime to view it, but it's worth it.
