As I write this, iTunes is transferring about 2,500 songs to my new iPod photo. I was originally just going to get a larger iPod, but the coolness factor of the color screen was simply too much to resist. Matt at the Apple Store was quite helpful and he also set me up with a Griffin iTalk so I can record meetings at work. I haven’t had a chance to load any photos yet, but I really like the ability to look at album art as my music plays. My sister inherited my old iPod after nearly two years of pestering me to get her one. She didn’t even know what an iPod was until she saw mine, so I’m partly to blame for her technolust. Now I need to find a cool case for my new gadget. It’s all about the bling-bling, baby.
Oh, and a special note to the City of Minneapolis. When plowing the streets after a snowfall, how about NOT creating three-foot drifts in front of the curb cuts? I got stuck in one such drift on the way home from the train station and I might still be stuck there if someone hadn’t helped my nurse drag me into the street.
