Wayne D's Blog

I have developed an unhealthy obsession with the Google robot. When the robot spurns my freshly minted blog postings and continues to insist a week old blog posting is my newest I despair. Please robot, notice me, update you index, I need your assurances that I am relevant. I don't think this is a good thing, I try not to look but I can't. I shall try to be strong but I to have my ego stroked and this needy behaviour is difficult to suppress.

Last night I had 120 songs waiting to be uploaded to Last.fm from Amarok. I consulted my Linux guru who after contemplating his navel offered nothing beyond an inscrutable gaze. I scoured the net until I came across bernieda's post on the ubuntuforums. His suggestion was simplicity itself and it seemed unlikely to work but I gave it a try none the less. Woho! success. What was the great mystery that had stumped many? Go to Last.fm and set change your password to be the same as the previous one. Whoosh, up they went and my submission queue was empty.

I know I promised no more double topic post, c'est la vie. I have posted a picture of my new toy on this entry. Showing this one off is one of the few times having women comment on how small it is will not turn a man into a quivering mound of insecurity.

Quick edit, I was browsing Last.fm and noticed this song go by. I thought it was great so I thought I'd try embedding it here. Take a listen and tell me what you think. The artist's name is Laura Marie. Click the little play button to hear the track.
