1/6 of Grad School is Officially Over

This past week was (believe it or not) midterm and final week.  It is true, I am 1/6 of the way done with graduate school.  While I can attribute my “job well done” to my over-achiever, goody-two-shoes study habits, there were some things that helped make my first Mini painless.

Here are some goodies that I recommend.  Oh, and if you don’t know what a Mini is…it’s a 6-8 week semester where an entire 16 week course is crammed into that small amount of time.  I don’t like them.  Anyway…on with the goodies:

Musicovery (musicovery.com): Great site for free music…you can’t download, but you can choose your mood, or the genre of music you feel like listening to, and if a song ever comes on that you hate, you can block it forever.  I love it!

WebUrbanist (weburbanist.com): A great site for public art, architecture, and travel.  The most obscure stuff is here and WebUrbanist does an awesome way of writing about it.  My favorite is an eight-part article about the history of guerrilla marketing.  Check it out!

Miro (getmiro.com): Click it, download it, love it.  Free open source Internet TV.  I am addicted…I love the Discovery Channel and now I get it anywhere I am.  Miro=Love.

Honestly, I can’t take credit for “finding” these on my own.  I am not a full-grown geek, but I am afraid I may be one day.
