Oh what fun it is to bike…

D’Arcy Norman writes about his bicycling experience in Calgary. Interesting observation among others that i’d like to second:

The likelihood of a vehicle displaying a yellow “support our troops” sticker/ribbon seems to be directly proportional to the size of the vehicle. I haven’t seen one on a Prius.

This is also a good occasion to point out that there is a monthly Critical Mass ride in Calgary every last Friday 5:30 pm at Eau Claire Plaza. I have attended the last one and met quite a few friendly people – on bikes.

BürgerBosse&Beamte

Kirsten hat drüben beim Amateur ein wunderbares Gedicht über unsere lieben Mitbürger, Mitbosse und Mitbeamte veröffentlicht. Bester Brechtscher Wortwitz, wie ich finde.

New ways of visualizing music

There are a number of ways that allow you to visualize music so that you can explore and listen to new or almost forgotten music. Magdeburg based designer Hannes A. Jentsch came up with a cool way how to filter and display music titles according to recommendations, mood, intensity and number of beats, personal popularity and play order. Check out the description, screenshots and ask for the demo app.
