● A personal problem was looking like stopping me from taking to the airwaves tonight, but no… tonight’s show IS LIVE, and back with a bang. I’m doing the “Top Ten Songs that mention ‘Music’ in the Title”. Barrell. Bottom. Scraping. I know!
● Akismet has been acting up a bit for me on a few blogs lately – looking into Spam Bam as a potential replacement.
● With International Delete Your Myspace Account being only five days away, the BBC report on just how hard it is to leave the site behind. Oh, and they’re also telling us not to talk on our mobiles just before going to bed.
● So, Rick O’Shea’s first album purchase was one by Bruce Willis? And Damien Mulley’s was one by Guns N’Roses? Wouldn’t worry … mine was either “The Simpsons Sing the Blues” (featuring “Do The Bartman”!) or MC Hammer’s “Please Hammer Don’t Hurt ‘Em“. Can’t remember for sure…

● A Windows screensaver that updates itself with info from your social networking buddies? Nice idea, Chirp!
● Twenty’s Celeb Name Post is still thundering along… most recently, I’ve added these ‘Rick O’Shea’ suggestions. Enjoy!
