Just clearing out some old bookmarks. The ones that are crap were (and will be) deleted before being blogged here. The good ones are blogged here then deleted. Got it? Good.
- In/flux Mixoff: a site with MP3s of members of the In/flux mailing list which, while ostensibly about DJ Shadow, ended up just being a list of DJ Shadow fans talking about mostly music. I've been subscribed to it for a good 6 years now. The premise of the site: take some samples provided beforehand and make a new song. Be sure to check out Mixoff 2 and Mixoff 3. Evidently there are no files left for Mixoffs 4 and 5.
Crut: the product of this guy, who probably has more records than you. More obscure too. Smartest guy with regards to music I can think of.- Gemm, which purports to be the world's largest catalog of music. They probably have a good case, and if you're looking for that CD single you once saw in a record store but couldn't justify buying until now (well, if you're reading this, then odds are you know how to get the MP3), Gemm is a good place to start.
- Library jobs in the Northwest; Oregon. I had this grand scheme that I was going to get my MLIS and work in the States via NAFTA. (You didn't know you could work in the United States as a librarian through NAFTA? Well, now you do.)
- Some sites I researched for webhostings: Aletia Hosting; tera-byte.com; and One on One. It appears Aletia offers a better deal than the one I'm currently getting with Vervehosting, but the cost in time to transfer everything over and get everything up and running again outweighs any savings gained.
- Transit in B.C.; B-Line study in Vancouver. I was a big transit nerd, and even contemplated a transit weblog at one point.
- Stuff that looks really great but I don't have the time/energy/both: .boy.; Things a Man Should Know; sodaconstructor [MeFi discussion]
