Round two of the monthly mixtape. I’m still behind and that is alright because I am spreading these out.

“Break My Body/Hold My Bones.” Those few words get trapped into my earbanks. This song is about as gritty as it gets this month. Here’s a live version.

I have SXSW to thank for this song being available [...]

I have become a convert of nasal irrigation. Pour isotonic solution into one side of your nose and it flows out of the other nostril. It sounds weird, it looks weird, and it is weird. But it does wonders at clearing out your sinuses and feels more effective than simply blowing your nose. Apparently it’s [...]

Personal finance is important, especially in economic slumps. Whether you are an in-debt college student considering student loans or a successful business owner with a sum of unspent funds, you need to keep watch over your money. Making money is something altogether a different subject, but once you have it you should let it work [...]

Since the beginning of January, Alexa Redirect links have been deprecated and no longer function. They work as a prevention to get to your site.
It used to be possible to inject your link with a forced redirect from alexa: http://redirect.alexa.com/redirect?http://liquidparallax.com would tell Alexa someone is going to my homepage. It was debated whether this [...]

I’m usually the person who scolds other site for doing “This Month’s Best Posts Roundup,” but this is slightly different.

For instance, did you know that each recording device sold requires the [...]

In comes Grandpaboy and Paul Westerberg doing the old one-two. Unless you’ve heard of Westerberg or know of the Replacements, you may be oblivious to the underrated CDs known as Mono and Stereo. It was my first ever purchase from the Paul catalog. It’s been one of my favorite discs and certainly one of the [...]

Podbop has rolled out with a new way of bringing music to you. They have a list of artists on tour with mostly full length samples of what they sound like. You can also see who is coming into your town and grab a free track or two before you decide to go to the [...]

Instead of wasting time downloading things by hand, page by page, clicking links generated from javascript, right clicking to save or waiting for each save dialog box, you could be using a download manager to automatically grab certain files from links off of a page. DownThemAll is my choice for Firefox.
Let’s say you want [...]

There are times when I persist in the most random things. Sometimes it’s productive; other times it betters my life in no significant way. What I’m about to show you is very handy, but the amount I spent tinkering on it didn’t save me too much effort. Well, it actually did shape up 20,000 of [...]
