I caught a cold virus last week and its perty much taken my voice out. But I just couldn't go the week with out noting we've managed to pass our 20th episode mark. Since I noted our 10th episode with a music spectacular, I thought why not do it again. So here's some of the best music played on the Blog Oklahoma podcast over the last 10 episodes. Music:

Does it feel like a February to you? It feels more like late March to me. I know thunderstorms and tornadoes aren't unheard of, they are just so unexpected. Take today, I could go outside, and get some yard work done without a jacket. Now I'm not complaining, I needed to get yard work done, but uh are you sure it's February?

I needed a new PDA. I had originally set out to get a Blackberry Bold, but when I found out could get an iPhone for $200 cheaper. Well I'm now a member of the cult of iPhone. As much as I love this information device, I think I'm seriously developing a problem. I don't think I can go an hour without checking my e-mail. Somebody Help Me.

A very short video using 12seconds.tv. At 12seconds.tv you can post very short 12 second videos. Last night I downloaded their iPhone app and created this 12 second slide show video of my cat, Baby(the cat). Currently you cannot record video with your iPhone, thus the slide show. Here's some information from 12seconds.tv's FAQ:

What is 12seconds?
12seconds is the best place online for video status updates. It's a super easy way to share what you're doing with your friends and family using short video clips. You can use your web cam or mobile phone. Show your friends where you are, share your thoughts, or tell them how you're doing. We are building a video status platform that will help you keep up to date with your friends 12 seconds at a time.

Why only 12 seconds?
Because anything longer is boring. The scientists here at the 12seconds dodecaplex have conducted countless hours of research to determine the precise amount of time it takes for boredom or apathy to set in during typical Internet video viewing. Our patent pending Electro-Tear-Duct Prongers have determined that exactly 12 seconds of video is the ideal amount of time to keep anything interesting.
