My number one reason for not buying Spotify. For the FIFTH time now Spotify has randomly, without notice, removed a vast number of tracks in my playlist. I can understand that there might be changes in publishing policy, but if I had owned the tracks, I'd never be in this situation. (the album in question was Mark Isham's Castalia, which luckily I do have a CD of, but also _every single track by Cesaria Evora was removed last night :( :( :( )



The very least they could do is notify me that they disappeared so I don't spend time wondering whether I've gone crazy.



Spotify seems to be having licensing / communication problems.

I wonder whether there's a good business opportunity providing high quality hosting for open source apps. Tried to use another 'free' GTD Tracks site (gtdify.com) and it was down for critical parts of yesterday.

Totally loving this site. Takes snapshots of a page loading every 0.1s. Then you compare over time.

Now Google bookmarks has a very high profile discovery point, Matt Cutts pointed out the neat 'Bookmarklet' feature.

Here's a small tweak to the Google Bookmarklet to include the selected text in the 'Notes' section:

Drag this to your bookmarks bar:
Add to Google Bookmarks

NOTE: Chrome / Firefox only currently. Testing and refining with other browsers.

I've started getting a regular trickle of users subscribing to my new blog, http://thingswellmade.com. It's lovely and everything, but I'm not really sure why they are :)



I don't see any spam.

Really enjoyed the Twitter Developer Nest last night. Ewan McCloud (http://ewan.net/) is a hilarious and exemplary speaker whose vitriol on the mobile industry is entertaining and informative.
