The ID3 Tag Quest PDF Print E-mail
Written by Jason Kendall

I've got a fair collection of mp3's most were acquired before ID3 tags were popular and I'm darned if I'm going to redo them all. So I used musicbrainz to retag all my mp3.. Wow - it got most of them but I found one flaw - there doesn't seem to be a standard for the genre's.

One might be: "Rock", or "rock" or even "Rock and Roll" or "Rock & Roll", All of which show up as different genre's on my IPod. I'm a big fan of genre's only because I may be in the mode for rock, dance, classic, or metal depending on my mood.

So - I'm on a quest to find some way to resolve my multi-genre predicament. One note so far, some applications I've found use last.fm to pull tags - this seems like an interesting idea, but may leave me in the same predicament as before.

I'll keep you updated!

As mentioned before, I use Pound as a front end proxy to my sites. Due to some issues on my previous post I upgraded to 2.4.1 - seems there is an issue in 301 redirects. In order to fix do the following:

edit http.c line 1159 and line 1173:

snprintf(buf, MAXBUF, "Location: %s://%s%s",
Should Read:

snprintf(buf, MAXBUF, "Location: %s://%s/%s",
Give that a test and you should find it fixed.


 
Access to Google Groups via NNTP? PDF Print E-mail

I get ALOT of email to my different accounts, depending on what it's for. And, I'm a big fan of IMAP so I can access my email from where ever I am, no mater if I've read it of not.

I was surprised to find out that gmail now supports IMAP access to your mail - I'm going to be turning this on as soon as I get home!

The only thing left to make Google's services 100% complete in my book would be to add NNTP service to the google groups system. Unfortunately, it seems it's not possible at this time according to http://groups.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=46465&topic=9244

I think we should all be asking Google to support NNTP as soon as possible!

Funny thing is - I don't have any ads on google! When I click on the link it takes me to the legit google adwords website, but none of my gaccount user/pass work - I tried the email address that the email was sent too and what I figured the password would be, and I find out I have a AdSense account under this email, but no AdWords!

Weird!

/me moves email to /dev/null
