These are my links for November 25th through December 2nd:

• SparkFun Electronics – microcontroller info – here be dragons
• Miller-McCune | Article | The Close Relationship Between Pop Music and Advertising – "Major labels function with the assumption that 90 percent of artists they sign are going to fail — that should have been a red flag for everybody. I mean that’s a bizarre business model in any arena. But particularly in the cultural arena, the idea that the system through which culture is transmitted is dictated entirely by profit should concern us, because that’s going to narrow the types of culture that are transmitted. And then, on top of that, the alternative venues of distribution are stuck in the shadows of these major labels."
• Objectpark’s FuzzyClock – The best feature is nearly hidden – it's in preferences, special. You can special phrases to appear at certain times. Like: 'sun's over the yardarm' and 'go to bed now.'
