Amazon's Kindle 2 seems awesome. I don't have one in front of me, but I'd like to. The Kindle helps me read much more than I ever have before; so many books taking up so little space, many page-turns without papercuts.
Well... I'll usually declare allegiance to the vampires—I understand them best. I relate to them... I've been called (and compared to) them. And I'm fine with that.
I'VE BEEN CAREFULLY PLOTTING AND PLANNING MY NEXT "BIG MOVES," and though the details have been (sorta) made public, I've kept only my tightly-knit personal group informed.
I plan on ditching TypePad (at least for now), sticking with Vox in the mean-time, and I have no plans to change my Livejournal account (as I don't trust the fate of the company).
The biggest addition to my "Bradtastic Lifestyle" is Squarespace. I've been thoroughly impressed by their lightning-fast customer service and support, and their wonderful interface called "V5." The easy-to-edit WYSIWYG stylings will allow me to focus on the writing instead of code, but the feature that really sold me is Daring Fireball's Smartypants — built-in.
As a writer/illustrator/designer with a love for typography and a penchant for perfection, normal blogs' lack of “smart quotes” (alongside lousy blog editors) has been quite bothersome. Just when I was about to give up on my smart quote fantasy, I found an option to enable my saviour-software.
And I was sold.
I was going to leave TypePad without much fanfare or a farewell, but marinesetwas convinced me to send Six Apart my feedback. He likes their service, as does Warner Crocker, so I thought, why not? And I thought I'd share my review with y'all as well—it'll likely appear at Bradtastic.com or my new secret site.
I'm also sharing with you lucky, lucky people, the (partial) list of my Kindle contents! (Exciting!) Until then... stay sexy.
I'm currently listening to Bitter:Sweet's album Drama... something new for me. I've liked them for a while now, and it's chill music. Multi-situational. I appreciate that.
Twitter for the win... you either know it or need it.
