In the middle of servers collapsing and pride getting wounded and my nerves getting shot, there was one single ray of light keeping me going – the new Kleptones album.
I honestly believe that Eric Kleptone is the greatest mind in music since DJ Shadow. And you can quote me on that, although I’m not sure why you’d want to.
Sony has finally announced the US date and details for the PSP.
Short version: They’re only selling the value pack at the start, and it will be $250. But, in addition to all the goodies you get (headphones, wrist strap soft case, remote, 32 MB memory stick), the first million US PSPs will also come with Spiderman 2 on UMD for free.
I’ve had the opportunity to play around on a PSP at my local independent gaming superstore, and honest to god, the second I laid my hands on the thing, I couldn’t fathom playing my DS anymore.
Very much looking forward to March 24th. Very much indeed.
Edit: They’re also launching with 24 titles. For comparison, the DS is only due to have 13 out by that point according to the IGN release schedule. This is going to be mighty interesting,
In the course of a day, I tend to take a lot of pictures, hoping I’m going to catch a really good shot. I snag about 10-20 on my SideKick 2, and 10-15 on the Olympus if I have it. Most of these shots are taken discretely, as I have to try to “steal” them as not to get people punching me in the head.
As such, I get a lot of shaky and/or badly lit and/or badly framed pictures. 98% of all of my photos get immediately discarded, and half of the remaining ones get tossed when I look them over.
Out of the remaining 1%, most of them I have to retouch a bit – black and white often helps with the crap I shoot, or some rebalancing, or cropping.
But this photo that I managed to snag today at 59th & Lex is probably my favorite photo out of all I’ve taken since I started my photo obsession with Flickr. I hope you like it. And if you don’t, that’s okay too.
