I have incorporated recently and a lot of changes are on the way. Stay tuned…

In honor of today’s massive eBay boycott, here’s a list of the Top 5 eBay Alternatives:

1. GearGoblin - My personal favorite, very clean Web 2.0 layout, with some very cool features such as a fee calculator. Specializing in music instruments, music equipment, and computers.
2. Bidtopia - A new site with a pretty clean layout where all auctions start at $0.99
3. WeBidz - Pretty much an eBay clone, if you can stomach the ugly layout, it’s a pretty cool site with a lot of users
4. PriceNap - Another ugly-looking auction site with lots of users
5. uBid - The venerable merchant-oriented site. Not the best if you’re interested in just selling your old stuff, but can be a good place to deal-shop.

Led Zeppelin is my favorite band of all time. I can listen to their albums over and over without getting sick of them, always gaining some new insight in the process.

After stumbling on a clip of Jimmy Page’s prototype version of “Dazed and Confused” with his previous band, The Yardbirds, I have to wonder if we’d even care who Jimmy Page is, or if we would have gotten to know the immense talents of Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, and of course John Bonham, if Page had decided to stick with his old band.

Compare this to Led Zeppelin’s performance of the song on the Danmarks Radio program in Iceland, 1969, from what I would guess is about a year later. (or fire up your Led Zeppelin DVD for a much better quality rip of the same performance.) Upgrade!

This is awesome. In spite of the fact that I’ve got both client and server-side spam blocking, I still manage to get about 30+ spam emails a day coming through my inbox. Most of them are lame and generic, but occasionally I get a gem such as this (which includes, among other things, a reference to the long-lost Book of Wang from the Bible):
