The journey from there to here
Published on June 9, 2007 By Gideon MacLeish In Blogging
Well, over the last couple weeks I have been playing with my myspace page. Not to be trendy, mind you, but because so many of my friends use it and I use it to access their blogs.

I still don't have a picture of it; when I find one that won't break the Internet, I'll post it. BUT, I did get a short playlist (10 songs) up of some favorites. I could have uploaded some of my own and made the favorites more fun but I actually enjoyed perusing what was out there. I found much of what I was looking for, none of some others (none of the links to "Iris" worked...I will have to remedy that).

The gem came, though, when I was looking for "Ripple" which easily ranks among my top ten favorite songs. I found the normal Grateful Dead fare but was delightfully pleased to find a Jane's Addiction cover. Because this was such a cherished song, i had to hear it, and was pleasantly surprised to see it not butchered, and, frankly, an enjoyable song if not the near perfect Grateful Dead rendering.

The playlist is the feature on MySpace I intend to use the most, so if you've got some time check it out. My username is retrogeek42.
