This one's already been slashdotted, but I've been meaning to post it for a while anyway: How to Hack Your Tivo. Details on how to add another harddrive to your tivo so you've got more space. Whee! (I still need to get a tivo, dangit . . . wanna donate to the Laurel Gets A Tivo Fund? ;-p).

You can hear three tracks from John Wesley Harding's forthcoming album at the Hollywood Records site. You gotta select "Advance Music" and you have to login as a member of ye olde Go Network (register or if you already have, use your existing account). Once you do, you can listen to three songs in their entirety in RealAudio format: "Humble Bee" and "I'm Wrong About Everything" and "Goth Girl." Or you can wait, the album comes out at the end of August.
