Fever Ray wins best dance artist in Sweden
Fever Ray won the best dance artist in Sweden. As you know I’ve been following and blogging about Fever Ray all year and seeing them live back in September was one of the most amazing concerts that I’ve ever been to. Here’s a video of Fever Ray accepting the award for best dance artist in Sweden. I’m not sure who that is accepting the award, I don’t even think it’s anyone in the band:

iPhone 3G
Last weekend I got an unlocked/jailbroken 16GB iPhone 3G off of eBay to work on my T-Mobile plan. I had to install some tweaks to get things working properly. I had to install a tweak to get YouTube working, so that’s done. I’m still having trouble with MMS so if anyone has any info on that send it my way. I can send pictures, i’m just getting an error when receiving them. I also had to install a tweak to get push notifications working. And because it’s jailbroken I installed a few customizations as well, so far everything is working real nice!
So, what does everyone have installed on their iPhone? I’ve had my iPhone for just over a week and here’s what I have installed:
Facebook
Echofon (Twitter app with location based tweets)
NetNewsWire (RSS app that syncs to Google Reader)
iHandy Level (iPhone leveler)
The Weather Channel
Yellow Pages (with location based searching)
Amazon.com (complete access to Amazon.com in a little app)
Pandora (Internet radio, works wonderfully, even in the car!)
ESPN ScoreCenter (up to the second sports scores with push notifications)
Wikipanion (complete access to Wikipedia in a little app)
IMDb (complete access to IMDb in a little app)
AP Mobile (latest news headlines with push notifications)
Urbanspoon (restaurant finder and reviews)
Yelp (restaurant finder and reviews)
So, can anyone recommend any apps for me to check out? Or possibly better apps than I have listed.
What do you have installed?

I got a small package….
I got a small package. What? No really, I got a small package in the mail today. The package is from the beautiful and talented Rachel Case. The package contains a gorgeous set of cuff links that she made specially for me. Don’t believe me? Have a look:
Thanks a ton Rachel, you’ve provided me with a unique accessory that I can hardly wait to show off!

A lovely surprise was waiting in the mailbox for me today. My friend Rachel sent me a postcard. It’s no ordinary postcard. It’s a limited edition, #1 of 6, linocut that she and her companion made together. I feel so fortunate to not only receive one but receive the first one! It is truly an honor, thank you Rachel and Rhodes! Here’s a picture of me with the postcard followed by what is written on the card:
And the card reads “make more art, learn italian, go for hikes, keep in touch with friends, spontaneous road trips, drink more water, volunteer”
On the opposite side is what you’d expect from a postcard, a personal greeting to me! Thank you Rachel and Rhodes, you are both extremely talented and it’s privilege to have you both as friends.
