  1. Hubjub—Fixed gear in the UK

    Recommended on londonfgss.com.

  2. How Top Bloggers Earn Money

    I’m fascinated by people making decent amounts of money from this stuff, particularly when it happens almost accidentally. (via Daring Fireball)

  3. Tong Family Blog: Lame switches

    Modern equivalents for LAME switches (I’ve been using ‘—alt-preset standard’ all this time).

  4. iLAS

    Almost identical to iTunes-LAME, except it works. And with a newer version of LAME. What I’m now using.

  5. StuMoD - freight train of wit and cleverosity

    NMP3 Ripper is another alternative for encoding MP3s using LAME, but I haven’t tried it.

  6. Max from sbooth.org

    Blacktree’s iTunes-LAME script for encoding MP3s with LAME malfunctions with recent versions of iTunes. Max is an alternative, but seems a bit overkill just for this job.

  7. LRB | Rosemary Hill : Keep Calm

    An account of the Co-operative Correspondence Club (early 20C women’s letter-writing distribution network). Also rather moving as the century continues and the women age.

    Very enjoyable climactic end of year celebration/ graduation/ barbecue/ farewell. Feel too old/ dull to go to the party later tonight though

    About to bake scones for this afternoon's end of year "bring food from your own country" party. Good to see the weather playing its part.
