Record Exchange, and… Mom?
Edit: He has a placeholder blog for now.
I was thinking to myself (in rhyme of course, the way I usually talk to myself) yesterday, and devised a simple plan to serve as something to expand my musical horizons and serve the Blogosphere (in which Richard M. Stallman hovers above the earth) some proper record reviews.
I’m sitting here in the lounge, trying to write a blog post. People come, see me listening to something and “concentrated” on doing something with my laptop and decide to just turn back and leave. By saying that I just unconsciously denied the possibility that they just don’t like me, which could very well be it.
All of a sudden I realize me mom seemed to have added me on Facebook. I’m not kidding, she actually opened a Facebook account.
It’s funny, she asked me during dinner two days ago what Facebook is exactly, to which I replied “a networking site.” Explaining what a networking site actually is is no easy task for someone above the Internet “proficiency” of a guru. “What’s the point?” - I really couldn’t answer, I just didn’t know how to tell her that it sort of… doesn’t have on one many levels, and still probably has one.
Maybe I’m underestimating her will to get into this whole thing. Who knows, maybe the next step would be to start posting things on del.icio.us or declaring war on my guild in World of Warcraft.
… Like I was starting to say before my mom jumped in. I’ll exchange a record with Moruku (who is currently blogless due to some issues) every two weeks, I’ll give him one, he’ll give me one, at which point we’ll have to write a review and give it a certain score based on a set of criteria.
It’s being developed as we speak, in my mind for the most part. It’s all coming together now, and I expect to exchange the first record between Friday and Sunday.

Just like Dushkin here says, I’m starting a blog here, I don’t know wether it’s going to be a placeholder blog, or just a separate blog from my usual personal one which is down due technical issues.
It’s called Tunes In My Ears (TIME for short.. and that wasn’t even intended), and I will post a couple of tunes each week which has some sort of meaning to me.
You can read the first post, which I posted today here: http://tunesinmyears.blogspot.com/2007/11/christmas-is-looming-closer.html
I’m looking forward to the record exchange, and writing about it on my blog;
Cheers!
