Still alive

Happy New Year! It's been two months since I've written anything so there's lots to talk about. I'll try my best to keep it brief (and to update more often).

I found out in December that I will be keeping my job at the newly formed Sony BMG Music Canada. Hooray for employment... I think.

The holidays were spent doing the usual family things back in Windsor. K and I went to Chicago to spend new year's with Jody and Dave. I hardly remember Chicago being such a beautiful city (and what a skyline!) from when I visited years ago. We mostly just walked around downtown during the day, and bar-hopped at night. Photos of our exploits are now online.

To my near insanity, I've spent the past two weeks troubleshooting a friend's PC that kept freezing up. After countless software and BIOS tweaks, and swapping out virtually every component but the CPU, I finally discovered the problem: the damn power supply! It seems the P/S wasn't putting out enough juice when the computer demanded it, causing the lockups. Of course, it was literally the last component that I could possibly test out... Murphy loves me.

Some new music is online, and you can now check out the latest adds on the music section homepage. Standouts are controller.controller's 'History' and The Arcade Fire's 'Funeral'.

I've added some new functionality to the photos section. Galleries can now accept comments; you can now hide the comments section; photos can now have different titles and descriptions in each gallery they appear in; and a list of other galleries an image appears in (if any) can be found just below the image or description.

A list of friends' web logs now appears on the homepage in a new section called "network". Why don't you visit them when you have a moment?

That seems to be almost a novel now so it's time to shove off.
