VIRB

I'm in the middle of studying for midterms right now. It kinda blows.

I've had iTunes on Party Shuffle a lot lately. I'm usually a listen-to-the-whole-album-all-the-way-through kinda person, but lately I've gotten bored of that. Also, there's this neurobio program I have to use a school computer for, so I've also been using Pandora for internet radio a lot too. I didn't realize you could actually sign up for an account there and have your "stations" saved. I remember seeing the site a long time ago and thinking the interface was ugly so I didn't pay much attention to it.

I am on waaaay too many social networking / web2.0 sites. The other day I was bored (ok, study-procrastinating) and I made a list:

ME ON THE INTERNET

• virb (rachel)


• flickr (_rachel)


• twitter (rjk)


• del.icio.us (intensify)


• facebook


• waferbaby (rachel)


• livejournal (frenemy)


• last.fm (intensify)


• iminlikewithyou (rach) < this is in private beta; I have some invites, if you want

And that's not counting the things i've signed up for and never really used, or used to use but don't anymore:

• youtube (mushruminate)


• vimeo (intensify)


• digg (rkwon)


• tumblr (rach)


• threadless (intensify)


• ma.gnolia (rachel)

Hm, now that I actually write it all out, that list doesn't look that impressive anymore.

Note that MySpace is not on that list. Nor will it ever be. You know how vegetarians feel about meat? That's how I feel about MySpace. Actually, it's more akin to how a hardcore vegan would feel about non-free range chicken and veal wrapped in bacon, fried in lard, then wrapped in a leather coat made out of the hide of baby kangaroos.

Basically, I don't really like MySpace.
