I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before, but there's something brilliant on the world wide cobweb called the Music Genome Project. It looks objectively at thousands of songs, ignoring the genres completely, but instead examining the hundreds of components, or 'musical genes' of a song. It all sounds a bit geeky, but it's fantastic! They have a program called Pandora which talks to you, asking you about the bands/ songs you like and makes brand new suggestions for you to listen to right there and then. [U.K. people - they ask for a zipcode to confirm you live in America, for weird copyright reasons. Therefore, I now live in Beverley Hills 90210. It seems to work.

In other news, the weekend trip to Reading to see Jo was great. We all went out for a chinese meal on Saturday evening, and part way through, Jo grabbed the phone of her friend Phil. Being a curious sort of person, she sometimes does this to browse the texts or photos of other people. A wee bit cheeky, you may be thinking, but on this occasion she found herself staring at photos of Phil's willy, as taken by his wife! Needless to say she dropped the phone quite quickly. I think there may be a lesson there...
