  1. How We Built “Music Looks Awesome” & How You Can Join In - This Is My Jam

    Brilliant stuff - automatically making big, interesting, background images from a smaller album/video image.

  2. Digital Pianos - Which Brand Should I Buy

    Every few years I have a browse, and there’s so little comprehensive information around online. This site is a bit of a sprawling mess but has tons of stuff on it. It sounds nicely honest for a shop. [UPDATE: The owner also owns the Classenti brand, the brand of pianos he favours here… not so honest after all.]

    @iamdanw @jonty Every new hire gets their own fashion line. All C-level associates are entitled to judge a talent show.

    @denisewilton I bet they’re not usually “an invader, an ode, a brand in waiting, a pitch to the market…aggressive and experimental” though.

    Coming down after a weird post-lunch burrito and caffeine rush. Phew. I imagine San Francisco’s tech community feel like that all the time.

    @rooreynolds @edwardhorsford @dracos Brilliant, well done. We need a public repo for the whole Internet, then @dracos will fix everything!

    @stml @tomtaylor I was expecting to see a slow-motion close-up of the breeze block shattering the head of a humanoid dummy.

    @rooreynolds Smashing. Easily missed that one; I always have to stop and think through both options.

    @iamdanw @paulpod I think TCP’s a little modern, to be honest. I expect it’ll be some kind of centralised time-sharing system.

    @paulpod All requests to view a website must first be approved by your House Committee, the Barbican Association, and the Lord Mayor.

    @nickludlam @thegareth Yes. At least I’ll have a good reason to switch to our estate’s new broadband system when it arrives this year.

    @nickludlam @thegareth Oh, poo. My barely-thought-through politics-by-consumerism stance is now compromised.

    @rooreynolds I’m sure there are much more important things, but “Less views”? “Fewer views”, surely?
