It’s no secret that I’m quite white and nerdy. I do nerdy things, I know nerdy things, I am nerdy!

Well the other day I noticed some issues with the home internet. My wife said she had been experiencing some issues too.

I didn’t have time to mess with it before I went to bed, but I woke up and found I was still having trouble, and I almost made myself late for work because I started fiddling with it.

As any nerd my know, once you engross yourself into something you could space off hours real quick, luckily I still didn’t have my pants on, so when our cat rubbed against my leg my concentration broke.

I decided I would deal with later, I suspected a DNS issue and figured I’d work on it from work. Then that wasn’t working either.

How many of you guys love music? How many have a music library at home, and don’t have enough gadgets to carry it all with you every where you go? Yeah me too. I mean sure I have a 2 gig flash drive, a phone that will play MP3’s (2 gigs), I have an Archos that will play audio and video (30 gig) but I still find myself wanting to play something I don’t have stored away on one of my devices - this presents a problem.

Well it looks like I found an answer!

I didn’t think it would have been hard to please me. I only had a few core requirements, everything else would have been icing.

1. I wanted to be able to access my music from anywhere (mainly for work, because…well that’s where I spend a majority of my time).

2. I wanted something simple.
