This is of course belated, as I'm sending it on the 18th, but Happy Birthday to Lori!
<p>
One thing about MacWorld should excite mp3 junkies -- the iPod just got
even bigger, with a 20GB version and Apple officially endorses Windows
compatibility. Actually, the good news is, the 5GB and 10GB versions
came down in price. Hearing that the only "officially" functional
Windows player is MusicMatch Jukebox Plus is a serious downer, in my
opinion. Sure, MusicMatch is a decent player, but with plenty of great
free players on the market, why do we want to purchase a software
player in addition to the $299+ hardware unit?
<p>
At first glance, it looks like Apple is only paying lipservice to true
Windows compatibility. I've seen no mention of any additional
functionality, besides song management via one media playing utility. Mediafour's
<a href="http://www.mediafour.com/products/xplay/">XPlay</a> remains a
better option, in my opinion. In addition to allowing you to use an
iPod with almost any media player made for Windows, it assists with
contact management, via Outlook vCards, in addition to making the
iPod an additional drive on your PC. At a mere $10 more than MusicMatch
Jukebox Plus, XPlay blows the doors off Apple's officially endorsed player.
<p>
Lori and I made the five and a half hour drive to St. Louis for this year's
<a href="http://www.sic.org">SIC</a> without a hitch. I just missed a
face-to-face introduction to John Lal, of
<a href="http://www.winferno.com">winferno.com</a>, although I'm sure
we'll meet tomorrow. John's the guy behind the
<a href="http://www.winferno.com/p/lg4/">free copy of Research-Desk</a>
for all Gnomedex attendees. Shortly after arrival, I enjoyed dinner with
the <a href="http://www.esellerate.net">eSellerate</a> gang, with a
discussion about <a href="http://www.gnometomes.com">GnomeTomes</a> and
what the future holds.
<p>
Every time I travel, I'm reminded just how slow dialup really is. Fortunately, my
<a href="http://www.crosspaths.net">Crosspaths.net</a> connection allows me
to send mail via my Lockergnome account, unlike most of the national dialup
services. Crosspaths is technically an Iowa ISP, although the have points of
presence in almost every major city in the country. If you're a dialup user,
you may want to take a look at their offerings, regardless of where you live. Lori
has used their DSL service for two years now, and they've been nothing short of
outstanding in dealing with customer service queries.

This originally appeared in last weeks Webmaster Weekly, but due to its graphical nature, its worth inclusion here as well:
<p>
"If you browse to a Web page that contains an image that has a transparent
background in Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format, the image background
may appear to be gray rather than transparent."
Fortunately, Microsoft explains a solution for this problem. Personally, I
haven't encountered this PNG display error, but for those of you
simplementing PNGs on your sites, you'll want to review the solution.

<b>Fight Cloud</b><p>

Unknown artists across a variety of genres offer free mp3 downloads of
selected tracks, with an option to purchase songs on CD for the price
of shipping and handling. All CDs are professionally mastered works,
so you're getting label quality releases, without the jacked-up retail
price tag. The mp3s let you decide if the album is worth you $4.95.
The only thing I find odd about this site is their proclamation of
paying artists 50% of distribution profits, which I have to assume is
50% of zero, since the CDs are free. The artist selection contains
some solid releases by talented artists, regardless.
