Entrys, Developments, Rude Customers, Mood Swings and The Boys Club New Artists Of The Day: Out Damned Spot:False Conception. Chrome Attic:Doesn't cost a penny. Free MP3 Of The Day: Brandan Canning:Hit The Wall. So, today's entry might be a little short. That's because not a lot happened last night. I hate it when that happens because then I don't have a huge amount to write about. And that is never a good situation to be in! This said, there are a couple of developments which are happening to this site. First of all, podcasts are back! It's taken us a while to find the right technologies to get it working, but now they are back! Many thanks to the guys at HearWho.com, their great text to mp3 converter is what powers our podcasts, and is probably one of the best text to mp3 converters out there. Secondly, YouTube has slowed right down to the point where I can't really use it to vet the videos I have been putting up as streaming songs of the day. And my favourite alternative, Google Video is now pretty much full of YouTube videos, so I am replacing the streaming song of the day feature with a featured artist from SliceThePie.com. Although due to the space I'll be freeing up, I may include two or three songs from SliceThePie.com artists. At the moment the format of the new feature isn't quite complete yet! Last night a lot of the customers were so rude. I mean, thrusting things into my hand without saying hello or anything. It really annoys me because it's a little thing for them to say, it doesn't take a lot of effort on their part, and it makes me actually want to serve them. And it really gets to you when you get customer after customer who looks miserable and can't even be bothered to say hello to you. Plus last night I had to deal with THe Blonde Bombshell who was busy playing Mr Mood Swing. From 11pm until 2am he was in a foul mood and kept his answers to our questions short. Then suddenly, at 2am, he became Mr Happy. And we are supposed to just play along with that. It really annoys me that he thinks he can just play with us like that and we'll play along with it. But the thing is, at about 5am, he went back to being Mr Moody again. Although the thing which does make me smile is that even Slaphead who really likes The Bombshell has said that he's getting a little fed up with his mood swings. Things could get really interesting really soon. Lastly, I was supposed to attend a Boys Club meeting today, but Pedro decided he wasn't going to, The Vetran had to leave at 3pm precisely, which meant that we had to have the meeting at 2pm, which was no good for me. So it was cancelled. Suits me. I'll just go there next time with my ideas fulled developed and pushed a little further. Permalink | |
