Ride the ToneMatrix

From the website:

Simple sinewave synthesizer triggered by an ordinary 16step sequencer. Each triggered step causes a force on the underlaying wave-map, which makes it more cute.



Fascinating application that's bound to keep you amused for more than ten seconds! I also think it could become extremely annoying if someone ELSE was playing this around you.

How to play: Click to add or take-away a square; space to clear the board. Build a melody!

And Swaziland Makes 98

Even though the state flag counter (at bottom of the page) has maxed out on all 50 states and the District of Columbia, I still enjoying seeing the newest countries to have visited this blog.

For a week or longer, the newest country visitor was Montenegro, but the other day I noticed Swaziland had been here. It's always interesting to view the country information for countries such as Swaziland.



The African continent is the most under-represented, so I was pleased to see this latest new country from that region of the world.

As the list of new countries grew, I was chuffed to think of the "success" of this blog...then I visited the Flag Counter Forum and saw posts by several bloggers who had well over that number visit their own sites; some claimed over 200.

Several weeks ago, I noticed an odd entry, not a country but listed as "Unknown - Satellite Provider". Now, I'd bet that is exactly what it says it is, someone uses a satellite dish for their ISP. (I've read they're not reliable, touchy to keep in place and while it's faster than a dial-up connection, they are at the low end of everything else)

It's that, or some govt. agency checking for subversive activity...or maybe it's from a UFO who was attracted to the special frequency of this blog. (or perhaps they thought they saw a photo of one of their own kind in here)

Whatever, only two more to reach 100!

Never Had It

But it sounds pretty good!

You Are Apple Iced Tea

You are warm hearted and generous. You believe it's important to make others feel comfortable. You are a bit of a cozy homebody who feels out of place in the warm weather. You'll drink iced tea but you prefer the hot stuff. You are more serious than most, and you shy away from superficial people. You prefer to look beyond the surface. You like deep conversations, engrossing novels, and moving films. You find ideas and human interaction fascinating.

What Flavor Iced Tea Are You?

I put these things in as filler, just a free, fun thing to post, and never take them seriously, hope everyone knows this.

This one hits pretty close to home, though, at least it's how I perceive myself to be. I do like hot tea better than iced, but hot apple tea sounds better.
