Syncing ratings from iPod back to iTunes
It doesn’t do this, by default, unless you’re syncing your whole music collection automatically. Which is a bit rubbish if, like me, you have an 8Gb iPod Touch and a 60Gb music library. See, what I tend to do, to make sure I actually rotate my music and listen to more than one album (:-))
A page from my notebook
I do this from time to time. I pick a random page from the notebook I use in meetings and scan over the notes trying to work out what frame of mind I was in. 22nd February, 2009 Tweedle dum and Tweedle dummer Robots of Death! Oh no! We’re all doomed! dibble flibble wibble! Woo!
