Helvetica

I know that I’ll be more than a little geeked over seeing Helvetica when it finally comes out. I don’t want to have to wait for the DVD tho, so I hope there’s a screening in LA that I can catch before that happens. Guess I better add their blog to my feed reader and stay caught up with their announcements…

Out Of Control

Oh. Holy. Shit. Go watch this right fucking now.

Would it help if I said please? Okay, fine…

Go watch this right fucking now, please.

Can’t Get You Out Of My Head

This isn’t a music blog or anything, but for whatever reason I can’t seem to stop playing these songs over the past week. So I thought I’d share them with the lot of you. Sharing, after all, is caring…

  • Interpol - Evil — This is probably one of my favorite Interpol songs out of their entire catalog. Enough people have said that they have a very Joy Division sound at times — to the point where it sounds a bit cliche — and I think this song does a good job drawing a line between the two groups.
  • Colin Meloy - Jack The Ripper — I really enjoy what Colin from The Decemberists has done with this Morrissey track. In fact, I really enjoy the whole Colin Meloy Sings Morrisey EP, but this one is quickly replacing Everyday Is Like Sunday as my favorite.
  • New Order - Age Of Consent — Speaking of songs quickly replacing one another as favorites, I’ve been swayed towards liking this song a bit more than Temptation. I’m not sure if it’s just because of current circumstances or whatever, but I feel like I really identify with it.

The senduit links expire in a week. If you want them, grab them quickly.

You Got Your iPod In My DS

Man, I love the DS homebrew community…

Friend Coding

You know what I’d like to see? A site where you can select the DS games you own and enter your friend codes. Of course, sites like this already exist — so I’d like to take it a couple steps further…

  1. A simple social networking aspect would be nice. I’m imagining notifications when an acquaintance add their friend code for a game you already own. Also a simple way to coordinate a time to go online and play against one another would be handy, wouldn’t it?
  2. One word: Badges. Let me share my friend codes on my blog and allow folks to send me a challenge. After all, I’m always up for a pick-up game of Tetris.

I know it’s half-baked, but I think it would be pretty damn sweet. LazyWeb, do your magic!
