New Ted Greene tribute CD

I've gotten a postcard about the new Ted Greene tribute CD, but I haven't done anything about it yet (the year is young, the end of it busy and otherwise frought).

I continue to think Jake Shimabukuro is one of the best instrumentalists out there

And on the ukulele, no less. Check out the videos on his page, plus the many videos on YouTube.

This guy really knocks me out. I don't see too many people on any instrument doing what he does.

This page lost its counter when I updated the template

The new Blogger has great templates -- you can move stuff all around. Since I haven't bothered "tagging" any of the entries, I can't do a "tag cloud," and I'm not even sure Blogger even offers it.

And while I have started a tech-related WordPress blog, I still have a very good feeling for the Blogger service and its interface. In fact, I have a tech blog of the same name in Blogger. But since I can blog during work hours on the Daily News site, most of my effort continues to go into Click, my Daily News blog on technology, about 99 percent of which has to do with open-source software, primarily Linux, with a smattering of BSD, other applications and just a little bit of Windows and Mac info.

But I've gotten the itch to start playing again. Gotta figure out the next step. (Picking up the box is probably the thing to do, don't you thing?)
