I watched SNL S37E14 on TV tonight. Zooey Deschanel was the host,
and I swooned from here to Mars. She may add my heart to a bowl of
ice cream any time she wants. :) Karmin was the musical guest on
SNL. I was doing some research on Karmin when I came across this
Google+ post referring to tonight's SNL episode. I wrote a lengthy
comment on the post. GetGlue is *this close* to exploding the world
of live/on-air TV. In 2008, I mentioned in a video how I'd love to
see a current tweets on the TV screen while watching a TV show.
GetGlue does just that, but right now I believe it's only on mobile
devices and the web — I'm sure a TV (Google TV, Apple TV, etc.)
widget/app will be on its way very soon. It was very interesting to

Bells will be on next week's episode. I was contemplating either
buying their "Treats" album ($6 on Amazon), or just buying a month
of Rdio Unlimited ($5/mo). I decided to buy the album because then
I'd have it available in more places; if I got hooked on Rdio
Unlimited, then that would be a $50-$120/year expense. The Super
Bowl was last weekend. I think the whole event is absolutely
ridiculous. I have mentioned in the past how I think money spent on
such events could be used to better humanity; making entertainment
for millions/billions of dollars is disrespectful to the planet. I
saw only a handful of the commercials; the best ones (Brodderick,
Seinfeld, etc.). I think Honda's Seinfeld ad was funnier/better
because the car was suited toward the actor/character and the c
