S3,E01: 1/30/06 (Belle and Sebastian, Duptribe, Mylo, Final Fantasy) (Jul 05 2008 02:30 GMT)
(First episode of Season 3!) First up, picking up where I left off, my favorite band out of Scottland Belle & Sebastian with "For the Price of a Cup of Tea" from their brand new album The Life Pursuit (iTunes, Amazon) which comes out next week. Next was dj outfit Duptribe with a great reworking of Simon and Garfunkel's "Sounds of Silence" called "SOS" (and technically, this was the "Trinity FM Radio Mix") from Samsung Chillout Volume 2 (Amazon). Then we continued down the path of electronic goodness with Mylo and "Paris 400" from their very purchase-worthy album Destroy Rock & Roll (iTunes, Amazon). And finally we wrapped up this episode with Owen Pallett's Hidden Cameras-esque band Final Fantasy and his song "This is the Dream of Win and Regine" from his album Has a Good Home (Amazon).

Holy Hanna -- it's podcast ... (Jul 05 2008 00:00 GMT)
Holy Hanna -- it's podcast #2 for the day, in which I sum up the NHPR show, and briefly talk about my conversation today with Marissa Mayer at Google. It was kind of a no op, we totally don't see eye to eye, they're clearly going to go ahead with the adware feature, and unless a lot of other people make it an issue, there's nothing we can do about it. I have some ideas about creating a safe environment that's not print, one where ideas can make it through from one end to the other without being messed with, I'm exploring those ideas privately with technology vendors who can help. Anyway, the purpose of this brief podcast is to bring a small amount of closure to this disc ussion. Google owns the Web now, at least until Yahoo and Microsoft fight them for it.
