I used to manually add all of Texas and Ohio State football games to my Google Calendar, but NOW you can subscribe to your favorite sports team and their schedule will show up on your calendar with a cute little icon.

AND!  AND!

When the game is over it posts the score!

How great is this?

That was my geeky joy of the day.

Also, I really enjoyed reading through the 2008 Architectural Issue of Library Journal.

So many pretty pictures.

I don’t know why I enabled the Genius feature in iTunes, but I did. This is what apple.com says about Genius:

Meet Genius: a brilliant way to create perfect playlists. Play a song, click the Genius button, and iTunes creates a playlist of other songs from your library that go great together. Genius playlists help you discover songs in your library you never knew you had — and rediscover forgotten favorites. http://www.apple.com/itunes/whatsnew/

I accidentally click on Genius a lot. I think it’s when I’m ejecting my iPod from within iTunes. If I double (or triple) click, when the iPod ejects it seems to immediately go into Genius. Anyway, I was syncing/ejecting my iPod this morning, accidentally opened Genius, and saw this:

Please excuse the lack of metadata on track one. I got a ton of music from my Dad and the metadata was a mess. Although he claims all the mp3s were “fine” on his PC and it must be my Mac. I’m trying to update all the information for the tracks, but it’s really time consuming. I have it down to under 50 now, and I started with hundreds and hundreds.
