To me, its the ideal way to listen to music from the bands I love. I just wish Spotify had a better way for me to tag and save albums into a collection. Right now, every time I open up their app I have to think about which band I want to listen to and do a text search to find the album I want. (Yes, I know there is a star feature, and technically yes I could create a playlist for each of the albums I like&#8230; but really?)</p> <p>Second recommendation to improve the social functionality: let me respond back to a music recommendation from one of my friends! I love that my friends can send tracks back and forth, its freaking cool! But half of the time I end up going to facebook it self to send back a response to an incoming track.</p> <p>That&#8217;s it for my gripes. Like I said, I love the service and will likely upgrade in the near future.</p>http://boldsource.com/post/9127960241http://boldsource.com/post/9127960241Fri, 19 Aug 2011 10:29:18 -0700spotifymusic<a href="http://css3generator.com/">CSS3 Generator</a>http://boldsource.com/post/6363649055http://boldsource.com/post/6363649055Thu, 09 Jun 2011 14:51:39 -0700css3<iframe width="400" height="325" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/hQVTIJBZook?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>“Javascript The Good Parts” Google Tech Talk by Douglas Crockford.</p>http://boldsource.com/post/5972717611http://boldsource.com/post/5972717611Sun, 29 May 2011 11:47:55 -0700javascript<a href="http://www.theblackkeys.com/product/brothers-2lp-vinyl-wbonus-cd">The Black Keys - Brothers 2LP</a>: <p>Rockin and rollin.</p>http://boldsource.com/post/5716374203http://boldsource.com/post/5716374203Sat, 21 May 2011 18:39:45 -0700musicthe black keys<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lkwqg1GtzX1qa08k7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Yum!</p>http://boldsource.com/post/5324000808http://boldsource.com/post/5324000808Sun, 08 May 2011 19:47:50 -0700foodtart<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lklpm8n8hW1qa08k7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Excited to see Peter Bjorn and John next week at Neumos in Capitol Hill.</p>http://boldsource.com/post/5152743947http://boldsource.com/post/5152743947Mon, 02 May 2011 20:56:32 -0700music<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lk34ejVeHP1qa08k7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Today’s bike ride through Mt Vernon Washington.
