Pandora

I made a new discovery, thanks to Don. Since Apple is now allowing (even encouraging) third party software on the iphone, there are a ton of exciting things out there. But I haven't found anything as cool as Pandora (no, not even the Light Saber or the bubble wrap that you can pop).

Pandora allows you to create your own 'radio station'. After you open your account, you search an artist and Pandora plays a selection of songs, by that artist and others that are similar. You have the option of giving each song a thumbs up or a thumbs down and by doing that, you shape your future song choices for that station. How cool is that?

In a mellow mood? Create a station based around that. Feeling rockin? Just add a different station with a different theme! I'm tellin' you it is the best.

Oh...did I mention it's free?

That's what I'm talking about. I LOVE my iphone!

A tidbit

'Some nanotechnology products are applied directly to the skin, such as cosmetics and sunscreens. Titanium dioxide is commonly used as the white pigment in sunscreen. When it is ground into nanoparticles it can still block harmful ultraviolet radiation, but it allows visible light to pass straight through, which means modern sunscreens can appear completely transparent, while offering the same protection as the old white stuff.'

There ya go...in case you were wondering. We went shopping today and bought a few things for the upcoming trip of a lifetime. Kona here we come! Armed with SPF 30 (I hope I still tan) and a blow up pillow for the plane, we are 13 days and counting!!
