Nerdtastic Geekatude:
After the Zinefest yesterday, I really wanted an excuse to stay home and get the hell out of the heat. But MJ and her roommates had invited us over to housewarm their new place. “Think food and general geekatude”, MJ told me. We’ve got a huge TV and WiFi. I brought my laptop.
An MJ party usually means a sizeable percentage of the tech-savvy that I can ply with dumb questions. I had been enjoying Mr. Merlin’s new blog 43 Folders earlier that weekend and wanted to soup up the ole iBook something serious.
They did not let me down. I now have my Safari bookmark bar back which makes me feel all kinds of empowered, learned about Audioscrobbler and how to burn DVDs to my hard drive which is great because I never remember to return anything to the video store on time.
Several other folks (including Bill whom I hadn’t seen in a long time) brought laptops and a general media swapping frenzy began. CD were pulled off the shelves and duped. DVDs downloaded. Link wisdon exchanged.
This is a great idea for a 21st century party. Of the nerdtastic sort. I love it.

If I say thank you now, it would sound totally random but I just realized here that Audioscribbler and Audioscrobbler are two different sites… which didn’t quite occur in my pea brain before.
THANK YOU!
