We’re struggling here a bit on how best to adapt to the new, new economy and with mostly bad news all around us, I was stalled on the creativity. Then I spotted the Clash in KK+’s Facebook stream.
Damn is that ever an inspired performance! A band at the top of it’s game. Sure, later, it wasn’t like that and they fell apart; but I’m just hoping for a few good moments this year. Like from the good old days.

On this day in 1969, the Mobile News Network app published these headlines.
Technically, the reason a Mac defaults to that date is because the actual Unix epoch is in GMT. Here in the US, it was a few hours before midnight 12/31/69 at the moment of the epoch (Unix counts the number of seconds since Jan 1, 1970 to establish dates). If a programmer hands back a zero, or a negative number like for an error, instead of the Unix date, then boom: it’s back to the future 1969.
Much happens on 12/31/69, including daily news, blog posts, and even podcasts.
For the record, in 1969. I was nearly 2 years old, Led Zepplin released an album, and it was considering the year that everything changed.

After completing another sync dance with my Apple TV, thought I should post on what to do when Apple TV Doesn’t Appear in iTunes.
Give the ATV a few minutes to show up in iTunes and that’s it. Why iTunes and ATV lose their connection, I don’t know and no one else seems to either. There are lost of various attempts to fix it on blogs and in forums — they amount to voodoo and speculation.
The sync dance works for me. My working theory on why the Apple TV drops from the device list is that if iTunes crashes, or hangs, and ATV just happens to try syncing during that time, boom it’s gone. And it’s very annoying.

Adding to the collective experience this year, SXSW has launched my.sxsw.com and for the noobs, a 101 course.

As noted on Twitter
Bike Hugger — Pauls Boutique remastered!
Bike Hugger — wow 20 year anniversary of Pauls Boutique.
JohntheMonkey — Paul’s Boutique - damn that makes me feel old. have the gatefold with lovely heavy vinyl in my record shelves.
Got arrested at the Mardi Gras for jumping on a float,
My man MCA’s got a beard like a billy goat
Not only is Paul’s Boutique digitally remastered, but in vinyl, and with audio commentary.
Like JohntheMonkey I felt old, when I got the press release, but also remembered the good times, a record before its time, and one that influences the work we do here and countless other artists, muscians, cyclists, skate boarders, and urban culture.
Dreeping is a term we use to describe life in Seattle — under gray skies and rain — and Paul’s Boutique plays in the dreep’s soundtrack.
