• ALMT-MM: Amanda Palmer going Siamese

  April 12th, 2010

  On ALMT-Music Mondays I write about music.

  I’ve only recently discovered Amanda (F*cking) Palmer in recent months, and have become captivated by her incredible creativity and humor.  Check out a video from her latest project, Evelyn Evelyn: where she and Jason Webley are… conjoined twin sisters.

  AFP just posted this “Behind The Music”, including tour dates.  Hmmm, what am I doing June 2?

  She’s hours away from opening tonight in Boston, according to her Twitter page. Jealous.

• ALMT-SS: Mr. Tweet is your “personal networking assistant”

  April 10th, 2010

  On ALMT-Social Saturdays I write about Social Networking.

  Recently I received a notice for Mr. Tweet. Are any of you using it? It promises to be “your personal networking assistant” and once you plug in your Twitter name, it suggests users and Tweets of interest.

  For me it suggested the following communities: Filmmaker, Erotica (because of all my latex friends), and Paranormal (I didn’t know I had a lot of Paranormal friends). It also showed me “Good Followers You Are Not Following Back”.  I’m definitely going to check that feature out.

  

  Another cool feature is being able to see what nice things people have written about you, and retweet them easily.

  

  So, I’m going to check it out and I’ll get back to you on how it goes.  Any of you have a Mr. Tweet personal assistant?

• ALMT-SS: Today is Obscura Day #obscuraday

  March 20th, 2010

  On ALMT-Social Saturdays I write about Social Networking.

  
  Organized by Atlas Obscura

  What strangeness is lurking in your backyard? That’s the question that Obscura Day is asking.

  For one day only, 80 curious events are happening in 20 countries by at least 4,000 people.  Will you be one of them?

  Their website is an up-to-date wiki-style page with Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and Blog updates about Obscura Day participants. So, even you can’t get out you can see what weirdness is happening world-wide. Right now Gadling.com is reporting:

  In San Francisco, a tour will be visiting the Musee Mecanique, a museum devoted to antique coin operated carnival games. In Detroit, the tour will bring visitors to the Heidelberg Project, and “outsider art” project made from found objects. Meanwhile, in Brooklyn, the tour will bring visitors inside the Atlantic Avenue Tunnel, a 170-year-old subway tunnel Gadling visited last year. Those living outside the U.S. will find plenty to do as well, with events taking place from Canada to Iceland to Japan.

  Below is the list of cities that have organized tours this year, but if your hometown isn’t listed you can Email them to organize a future event.

  

  As for me, all my backyard had to offer was a fresh spring snow. Strange.

• The Best of February 2010

  February 28th, 2010

  It’s the end of the month, so I thought I would revisit my favorite posts from January:

  Music Mondays

  I announced the winners of the GITRD-FF Valentine’s contest.
  I loved giving out the new limited edition latex CD case.  It’s so cool.

  Trivia Tuesdays

  On February 2nd I was very excited to share the grand prize for Trivia Tuesdays: the iPad
  Tune in on Tuesdays to earn your chance for the grand prize drawing.

  Wordplay Wednesdays
  

  I enjoyed the most recent ALMT-WW because of the great participation: word association.
  It’s never to late to play.  Check out the games I’ve put out in the last two months.

  Theatrical Thursdays

  Tim Hayes’ review of Precious
  I most enjoyed this review, because with the Oscar’s right around the corner I was wondering if I was alone in my dismay.

  Fan Fridays

  This fan-made model of Girl In The Red Dress
  Our first character model was so special.  Now we just need them mass produced!

  Social Saturdays

  Wordle for Twitter
  I enjoyed my temporary word cloud backdrop while it lasted.

  Funday Sundays

  My Hairstory
  It was a lot of fun to reminisce of hair styles and colors of days gone by.

  So there you have it. Our shortest month of the year is over and I’ll have even more awesome blog posts next to chose from. Stay tuned for some big changes coming up on the website and some merchandise we’ll be launching. Keep coming back for more and leave me feedback in the comments on what you’d like more of.
