From Waxy, here’s this strangely addictive game of “guess the keyword” called Fastr. I can’t stop playing.

This week’s thing coming soon…

Don’t Do It!

Artist Tom Judd has just started a project called Once a Week (via BoingBoing). Kind of interesting: he’s going to produce a page of art once a week for a year, and he’ll auction each one off on ebay. In addition, he’s selling 3cm spaces for £50 to advertisers – he will actually put your image on a sticker that he will stick onto the artwork, thus ruining it for posterity, and for the potential ebay buyer. It’s like Million Dollar Homepage, but with art. And maybe without the million dollars.

Thing a Week 17 – I Will

Easing back in with a Beatles cover this week. This song has been floating around in my head for quite a while, who knows why – maybe I’m in love. I think this may be the sweetest love song ever written, so I’ve recorded it without any winking or irony or irreverence. Just straight ahead sappy. And say what you want about Paul, but it takes guts to write a line like “Love you forever and forever, love you with all my heart” and never look back.

I Will

Jawbone Interview

I did an interview with the delightful Len and Nora on the Jawbone Radio podcast which you can listen to here: JC on Jawbone. I’m always amazed that these podcasters can keep the conversation rolling and interesting when they’re talking to complete strangers over Skype. I can’t even do that with friends in the same room.

Also, did anyone see John Hodgman on the Daily Show again last night? That man is fast becoming the new king of all media…
