There are signs that I am getting old...
(No details in public, but let just say that 5 hours sleep a day is not enough any more...)
I saw this link on Twitter for an image-aging algorithm.
So this is me now
And this is me getting older...
Seems as I will keep my hair...

I love my old iPod Shuffle.
Just a small USB stick that plays music.
I could use any headset I want and have full control over the music.
I did not buy the second generations as it was harder to use the controllers while running/riding and it requires a cable to charge/sync. However, I did like the clip.
I think the new generation took a step forward from design perspective, but MANY steps back as for usability.
It is great you could use playlists and there is no need for a screen to do it, but the 'new' VoiceOver is disappointing.
For a cool looking device as this, to have this 1985 audio quality (text to speech) is just bad.
I got flashbacks from years ago when I was developing eLearning tools and content and had to use the TTS (Text To Speech) from Microsoft...
You can create your own VoiceOver here - let me know if this makes sense to you...
One more thing - the new iPod requires you to use the 'new/special' headset.
I do not like this type of headset, it keeps falling when I run.
Check the introduction movie from Apple.
So, I guess I have my options. And so do you.

UnHub is a new service that helps you aggregate your online presence.
TechCrunch: "...What UnHub does is create a persistent iframe bar with tabs for all your online presences (e.g. your blog, Twitter stream, LinkedIn account, Flickr profile, blog comments etc.) linked to a dedicated URL you can easily share with anyone..."

Diamonds And Gold, by Langhorne Slim
You can have all the diamonds,
You can have all the gold
But someday you're still gonna get old
You've got to learn to get happy, along the way.
Take some chances, allow yourself to get lost
You're beautiful baby, you're the boss.
You've got to learn to get happy, along the way
There's no road to follow,
only stones left unturned
You must play with fire,
in order to get burned
Toss your misery, out the door
What are you waiting for?
You've got to learn to get a little happy, along the way
It's alright to change your style, it's alright to smile
It's alright to get a little happy along the way
Tough day at the office,
and worse, not at home
Don't wanna talk about it,
Just wanna be left alone
There's no joy in living,
You're giving all and getting none
It's a new beginning,
you thought you lost, but honey you won.
You can have all the diamonds, all the gold
Someday we're still gonna get old,
We've got to learn to get happy along the way
Get your hat
Get your coat babe
Leave your worries on the doorstep
We've got to get a little happy along the way.
