The New York Times posted a beautiful sound collage featuring some of the musicians we lost in 2008. Just added to the list, Freddie Hubbard.
I’ve been extremely light on the blogging front lately, but I have big plans to breathe new life into this site. I’ll be shifting gears as I reexamine my time, attention, and creative work. In the mean time, here’s a few links I’ve been meaning to share.
How sad to read that Oscar Peterson is dead on Christmas Eve. He was 82.

It was time to make Mail.app obey me. That’s the subject of my latest podcast.

3:28 – Some people will think we’re all crazy. Some will totally get it. But I’m in line and I can’t wait!
Are you on Twitter yet? Join me, won’t you?
If you don’t know what Twitter is, it’s basically a social micro-blog to update your friends on what you’re doing right now. What makes it different from a blog you might already publish is the use of text messaging to update your personal Twitter page while you’re [...]
This is the final week of The Show by Ze Frank. A full year commitment fulfilled. Talk about a challenge!
Ze inspired me a lot this past year. His show is most definitely 2nd Tier, even if he doesn’t know it. But that didn’t inspire me as much as his prolific output. That, and his total [...]
