Mr Big. – Shine

Mr. Big - Shine (Acoustic)

Of course I’m a fan of the original edition of the band, but you have to admit Richie Kotzen pens some fantastic tunes. Shine off their 2001 album Actual Size in particular compares favourably to anything else they have in their canon, and this acoustic version is even better than the studio album track.

Sony Ericsson Jalou

Designed by D&G, allegedly. Is it just me or is it one fugly phone?

Update: oops, it just comes in regular and D&G editions.

Thunderbird 3.0

Looks great, performs better. Best feature: super-powered search. Next best feature: global inbox.

Lightning doesn’t yet work on it though, so I can’t move my main work machine to it. At least Enigmail’s OK. Can’t wait…

Update: broke down and installed TBird 3.0 with the Lightning nightlies. Working OK so far.

It is said to be “commercial, yet heavy”. I’m not sure about that, but I do know the teaser sounds phenomenal.
