looks like premium subcribers get access to the lower tiered channels but no stern, live sports or anything else that makes sattelite radio cool. aol radio which is free has had this same lineup and more from the early days of the iPhone. are we in a holding pattern until they increase server support? I hope so!
nacho told me that the mccafe was better than starbucks because it wasn't as strong. he also likes that the line at mcdonalds isn't as long as the one at starbucks.
make no mistake, nacho is a badass.

I really love how Posterous has disrupted traditional blogging tools. Let's face it, launching the WP admin (or whatever blogging tool you use) and dealing with image uploads is a pain. Sending email and then seeing it magically appear on your blog is insanely cool. Ant Creed was the first to tip me off to Posterous last year but I never really adopted it because I was using Tumbr. Lately it's all I'm using. Like Twitter, it's more a stream of thoughts which is also reflective of how much attention your followers have. No one really kicks back in front of the fire to read massive blog posts - at least I think that's a rare behavior. I guess I'm going to take down macadaan.com soon or just point it here.
