Apparently, Starbucks' policy allows customers to request a cup of fair trade coffee! I worked at a starbucks for 4 months and didn't even know. Shame on me. See http://www.treehugger.com/files/2005/10/starbucks_chall.php

Just discovered Pandora.com yesterday. I gotta say: it's kickass! You give it a song/artist you like and it makes a streaming radio station with similar songs. For now it's 128kbps mp3. I sent an email enquiring about higher bitrates and/or aac+ streaming, and I got a response a few hours later basically saying they'll be working on it. Very nice to get such quick acknowledgement.
