i just got the chirpr (twitter app), pandora, and php function finder gadgets… we’ll see how those work out — so far chirpr is pretty cool… it notifies me (with a sound) when a new tweet is posted by anyone i’m following…

the php function finder is a wildcard at this point… i think it’ll come in handy when i mess with sites and stuff… but we’ll see
