For All Your Glow In The Dark Towel Song Needs

Via Metafilter, the best worst (or maybe the worst best) thing you’ll see today: the ad for Microsoft’s Songsmith.

Warning: may induce vomiting.

I wouldn’t have thought Microsoft would ever top the Springsteen-esqe Vista SP1 video, but they’ve done it.

Apps That Are Not Games On My iPhone

As it turns out, my list of non-gaming iPhone apps is considerably smaller than the mammoth gaming list, but those titles are worth mentioning too. Here they are, alphabetically: not all are currently installed on my phone due to space concerns, but these are the ones I’ve kept. Applications marked with an asterix are considered my critical application core, as they are on the first page of my Springboard. (Links all go to AppShopper.com; prices are accurate as of the time of this original post.)

Noir Jersey City

Some circumstances tonight – a trip to the grocery store on the light rail; a cold rain making the ground wet and reflective; some noir jazz getting shuffled onto my headphones – yielded the right conditions for a video.

I hope to keep filming with my Flip Mino HD. (Consequently, now I really want iMovie 09, as 08 is still a bit limiting.)
