A few things that caught my attention this week:

Amazon’s Cloud Player – put your music in the cloud and listen via your Android device or any browser.

Found a super cool website this week, Inventables.com has every odd and nerdy item you can think of. Great resource for those science projects that stand out. And don’t forget ThinkGeek, another site for items you can’t just get anywhere.

Remember the band Whitesnake? They’ve got a new album out. Wondering if we should still call them albums…

Heard a great interview on the BBC with Barbara Bodine, America’s past Ambassador to Yemen and spent much of her career in the Arabian Peninsula. She was a major player in the investigations of the USS Cole bombing and 9/11.

The Memphis Grizzlies sure made us proud this season. Cannot wait for next year.

I’m probably behind the curve on this one, it looks to be a year or so old, but an amazing display nonetheless.

The Wordle website allows you to create a pretty cool effect of taking text and creating a “word cloud”. You can enter random text or take all the words from a site (with a feed). Here is the wordle from my blog.

Albert EinsteinBesides being a genius and the perfect photography subject, Albert Einstein is my favorite quotable person. He always seems to say the most with the fewest words. Here are a few of my favorites.

It is every man’s obligation to put back into the world at least the equivalent of what he takes out of it.

We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the the universe.
