Craigipedia: Alfred Workflow: Rate Track and Play

http://craigipedia.blogspot.com/2013/09/alfred-workflow-rate-track-and-play.html

Cat /dev/brain blog.html. Friday, September 6, 2013. Alfred Workflow: Rate Track and Play. Inspired by the following couple of tweets, I realized I had a similar problem.

Craigipedia: Save Icons and the Floppy Disk

http://craigipedia.blogspot.com/2013/03/save-icons-and-floppy-disk.html

Cat /dev/brain blog.html. Tuesday, March 26, 2013. Save Icons and the Floppy Disk. Why do we still use the floppy disk as the icon to save? This has been hashed and rehashed a few times in the last few years, but there has yet to be a consensus on the topic.
