Side By Side With 2 CR48's
Ubuntu just beats chrome when a password is enabled. Without the password on bootup, Ubuntu clearly has it beat by a good few seconds.
This entire website - minus, oh say..... I dont know, 400 some odd cruddy old posts - have moved to a more
professional, better quality, and most importantly, snazzier site!
Yes, you're right, the new site features my past greatest posts, without the awful ones, and all new
ones to come!
Come visit or I'll throw you into a vortex of lava for still being on this old site!
**The link actually works now. Enjoy!

Trouble Moving to the Cloud? Here's Step 1: Music
Most likely, you have iTunes and unless you listen to music straight out of an Amazonian Forest, most of your songs are already in the cloud (of Groove)

For all the rest of you Billboard Top 100 followers, visit this link: http://groovylists.com/?do=itunes
First, you need a XML of your playlists. To do so:
1. Double click iTunes
2. Wait patiently
3. Right click your playlist and save it as an XML on your desktop or somewhere
(Was that too fast?)
Now go to the site and upload it. If you can't figure the rest out, please send your CR48 back to Google at the following address:

Google Gives the OK to Hack Any Operating System, Directly

"Developer channel (a.k.a. "dev channel")
Currently, by default, your Chrome notebook is on our beta channel, and is regularly updated with our beta version releases. Compared to the beta channel, the developer channel gets updated with versions of Chrome OS that may contain new features still being built, some of which may not always work as expected yet. Folks on the developer channel may also at times experience more instability (such as crashes). To find out about how to switch between the two channels, see here.
Developer mode (a.k.a. "dev mode")
While we try to make your Chrome notebook as secure and user-friendly as possible, at the same time we want to support developers who want to install their own builds of a Chromium-based operating system or another operating system and be able to tap into the full capabilities of our device. As such, we've implemented a physical developer on/off switch on your Chrome notebook that you can use to turn on developer mode and install your own OS. To find out how to switch between the two modes, see here."

Go to 192.168.1.1
Type the default password, usually a blank user and "admin" as the password.

Click the images to see them full size
Now copy my settings. Notice how I am using ONLY wireless G

Rant: Why American Radio Sucks
So i'm sure you've heard those annoying HD radio ads lately... No commercials eh?
We shouldn't have commercials in general.
How can you get around that? Listen to high school radio stations. They take advantage of other stations by making fun of them.
A great example is one station, which says in between songs: "Broadcasting from a small hill on top of a football field, this is ____" and a little boy says "What kind of station is this?". In reply, the man says "Shut up little boy" and so on.
I have taken so much hatred for US stations that I often use Wunder Radio on my iPod to get international stations in Italy that I remember liking during my trip last summer, such as Radio Subasio. These European stations play mostly all American music while adding a little bit of local culture and maybe a nice local deal or two every hour or so.
Try it out :D
