On Vox: Good Morning, Vox

Cozy space

Good morning! For the first time in a fortnight, I feel like I've had a good night's sleep and I'm actually facing the world with a positive attitude.

Well, a positive attitude and a big pot of coffee.

I do wander whether my good night's sleep has anything to do with the two glasses of wine I had at the Mashup event Piers and I attended last night. (There's coverage over on One Man & His Blog) Maybe it relaxed me enough that I actually slept properly.

I've become dangerously close to a teetotaller in recent years, so maybe a little gentle boozing is the way forward...

On Vox: In The Beginning...there were Barenaked Ladies

The Barenaked Ladies/YouTube video I blogged a couple of days ago, combined with general videa-related noddling here in the office this afternoon have reminded me of this:

Barenaked Ladies - Call And Answer

This video was shipped as an example of Quicktime on an Apple installation CD - probably OS9 - and it was the first time I'd ever watched a music video on a computer. I remember, back in the 90s, watching this tiny wee TV showing this slightly surreal video, and thinking that this was the start of something.

Little did I know...
