Dear Internet,
Please stop telling me how offended you are on behalf of Ben Gibbard. Owl City does not sound like the Postal Service.

You suck at music.

Yes, I will update my apps on five computers. Yes, I will buy or borrow as many rubber chickens as I need to return all my preferences that have magically albeit subtly disappeared. Yes, the new Dock is pretty. Yes, I can’t wait to see all the cool apps people build using the extra gigawatts afforded by the 64-bit flux capacitor.
But, fucking A, guys. I realize you’re having a...

What's so offensive about Tumblarity?
Is it because you thought you were waaay more popular back before tumblr assigned you some goofy ranking? It’s just one line. A line you never ever have to click on. You can even pretend it’s not there if you like.
See I’m pretending now. POOF! It’s gone!
If your goal in creating a tumblr account was to post interesting things, and follow interesting people, well I...

Dropping tabs for a sidebar is a fantastic idea, which is why Omniweb’s userbase skyrocketed back when they implemented this in 2004…. oh wait.

I’m elated and devestated at the same time. This will make me a poor pennyless man.
A poor pennyless man with a pocket full of Nick Hornby novels, yes, but poor and pennyless regardless.

“I think the point of this long ramble is simply to say: Keep your ears open. Because you never know where that next great sound is going to come from. Don’t be afraid or embarrassed to like what you like. It’s just stupid. And life is too short. And the next time you feel like belting out “Dancing Queen” in public? Do it. If anyone gives you grief, go ahead and...
