Trust on GarageBand.com watch: I thought I’d let you in on the thrill and anticipation of the GarageBand.com review process and post the reviews here as they come in. After about 20 reviews, if I reach a high enough score (I forget how high, but I think 4.5), then the song will be eligible for…

"Trust" on GarageBand.com
I’ve posted Trust up on GarageBand.com to be reviewed. If you don’t know what GarageBand.com is, check out this previous post. For example, here are some typical reviews for « Dinosaur » (all of them are available on the GB site): « god this is wonderful this is great like they might be giants im gonna burn a…
"Trust" on Opsound
Trust is getting an enthusiastic welcome so far, so I’ve put it up on OPSOUND, one of the best music hosting sites out there, that favors quality over quantity. And as I’ve mentioned before, Opsound has a podcast feed of my stuff.
Trust
[kml_flashembed movie= »http://vincent.knobil.free.fr/media/tinyrv_25_trust.swf » height= »178″ width= »150″ /] Introducing Trust, a simple pop song. It is featured prominently on my showcase site, and is available on Radio Vince (and mini Radio Vince) and on my SoundClick page. Do let me know if you enjoy it (or not).

Minor sknoblog improvements

Moved the search field to the top of the sidebar. Added the « Recent Posts » category to try to compensate a little for the chronological…

I mention this because I don’t really enjoy using any of the newsreader applications that I’ve tried. There are plenty, and some of them, like NetNewsWire or NewsFire,…
Frank Zappa on Crossfire in '86

Societies worse off 'when they have God on their side'
This falls in the category of « duh » studies, like « study finds that drinking water is good for you » or « study finds that swallowing razor blades is bad for you » or « study finds that rabbits are smaller than whales » but I’m sure that some study somewhere has proven that « sometimes, stating the obvious can be useful »…
podcasting
Just as I was (opportunistically) thinking of providing some music in podcast form, I noticed that the Opsound site had been revamped, and now provides a podcasting feed for every artist. So for you podcast addicts, you can go to the bottom of my Opsound page where you’ll find the RSS2 link. I don’t own…
