127.0.0.1 Are these the best Headphones available?

admin — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 13:22:21 +0000

I really love my Sennheiser HD 595 headphones and love the the sound they are producing. After reading several reviews of the Sennheiser HD 800 headphones, I just had to try them… Their price is quite out of my league, but a local DJ store had them and when I asked them they let me try them for about half an hour. I brought two of my favorite CD’s with me: XX – by The XX and Welcome to Mali by Amadou and Mariam. I can’t even find the words to describe the sound coming out of these cans… just amazing, clear, full sound. I have never heard anything sounding so good….

I guess I’ll just have to save up to get me a pair of these, but they go for 1400 USD….

Here is a professional review of the cans: http://stereophile.com/headphones/sennheiser_hd800_headphones

I just noticed the IE 9 screenshot FavBrowser posted and I have to say it – I like it. It looks like IE got rid of most of the clutter it always had and got a cleaner and simpler UI.
Check out the some more technical details at FavBrowser.

An amazing demo of the possibilities with HTML 5 and Chrome. This interactive video features some very cool and awesome things… It’s based on the song “we used to wait” and is called The Wilderness Downtown.

Type an address into the search bar and let it surprise you… – http://www.thewildernessdowntown.com/

Or use this link with a San Fransisco address already built in…

I can’t even come close in explaining how much I like this demo – you just have to see if for yourself!

My Personal take on music piracy

admin — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 05:31:11 +0000

I don’t want to pretend that my take on anything matters, but still – I would like to use this opportunity to share with you my view as unimportant and small it may be…

I love music. Period. I’m willing to pay money for the music I love. Period. BUT – My options to get my hands on a good album are very little… I can go to the store and buy an album I have never heard, maybe listening to a few minutes of it in the store before I buy it. I did this more than once and most of the time the CD didn’t make it into my player more than once, because I just don’t like it – what a waste of money. I’ve been trying to get an online music store to work with my credit cards (Amex gold, international) but since my residence is in Israel, most of the online stores deny the transaction or won’t even let me try – like the famous apple store (why?). Believe me, I would prefer paying for my downloads than taking the risks of downloading pirated music – not once I encountered weird and suspicious files in the download. I want to listen to an album before I go and buy it, is that too much to ask for? Instead I find myself over and over again paying money to filehosting companies like hotfile, rapidshare, etc. to download an album, just to listen to it before I go and buy the CD. I tried using other methods to check out albums, bust most of the time I was disappointed… Youtube is full of edited music, remixes and what not, amazon’s and other online store’s “preview” of songs just isn’t enough – how can I choose an album to buy after listening to 15 seconds of low quality, compressed, streamed of a song?

Maybe it is time to rethink the current model of music on the Internet, or the distribution of it? Or maybe I’m just not aware of other options? Or maybe I’m just to0 spoiled and should lower my expectations?

I’m open to any suggestions you have – either leave a comment or send me a mail.

Make Ubuntu Lucid look like a mac…

admin — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 10:54:15 +0000

I really love linux, especially Ubuntu. Ubuntu is my favorite distro, because it’s user friendly and looks good while still being a very solid and stable OS. But there is something about Mac’s UI, they just look great… they look so great that when I saw this post about making Ubuntu Lucid looking like mac, I immediately had to try it :) and it looks GREAT, just like mac OS
