New iPod nano could be a runner's best friend

If you're a runner and blessed with a good (preferably commercial-free) radio station like the Twin Cities are, you've got to be excited about the new iPod nano. Say goodbye to playlist fatigue as you head out the door with the built-in FM tuner.

There's also the Nike-plus kit (sold separately) which tracks time, miles, pace, calories, and gives you feedback during your run. Of course, the big deal is supposed to be that the nano now has a video camera. Not so helpful running but an awesome feature all the same.

I may have to reward myself with a nano next time I accomplish something big. Like my upcoming marathon. Better yet, full time employment.

Update:
-Smart, thorough review by Technologizer.
-New iPod Nano, equipped with video camera, might not be welcome at Twin Cities gyms

Friday Afternoon Musical Gift: Ferris Bueller's Twist and Shout

Matthew Broderick on the death of John Hughes:
"I am truly shocked and saddened by the news about my old friend John Hughes. He was a wonderful, very talented guy and my heart goes out to his family."

Bill Paxton:
"He took a tremendous chance on me. Like Orson Welles, he was a boy wonder, a director's director, a writer's writer, a filmmaker's filmmaker. He was one of the giants."

Another Side of Brother Ali

On our way to catch Aquatennial fireworks, we were pleasantly surprised to stumble upon Brother Ali's performance at the One Day In July festival on an otherwise quiet street in Minneapolis' North Loop. We approached from behind the stage.

P.O.S. offers insight into his sound

Cinemax interviewed P.O.S. during Soundset to shoot his Max Tour Story and gives us this nugget. Sums up pretty well how I feel about his stuff; I appreciate it much more when I give it my full attention through headphones.

I don't wanna make records you put in and go chill. I wanna make records you put in and you listen to it. And if you're not actually listening to it you wanna turn it off, because it's annoying. But if you listen to it careful you see what I'm trying to do.
