Look, I like Apple. I do - I've owned three ipods so far (one is my brother's now), I have a macbook and heart it at stuff. But, sometimes, I can't understand for the life of me what they're up to. Ping? Don't see the point. ipads? Awesome, but for that price I might as well get a cheap laptop.

Anyway, I just tried Genius, which is sold as a most amazing thing that will do playlists that will 'fit together perfectly' on its own. What I wanted: playlists of songs with the same kind of mood or sound. What I got: playlists of songs in the same genre. ER.

If I just wanted a 'pop playlist' or similar, I can just do it myself, thanks. Ugh.

Anyway, does anyone know what a 'support letter' from an academic to get into postgrad should say? I'm seriously blank, apart from 'so-and-so was a good student and works hard' or something like it, and I'm gonna go chase teachers tomorrow to ask for them. o_o

Most professors write reference or support letter quite often, so I'm sure yours will already know what to write:) Although I did have a photography professor that told me I had to write my own, and then give it to him to sign, lol! Hopefully none of your teachers will make you do that!

Yeah, it was something like that - one of them had a recommendation letter for a job that she just tweaked a bit, and the other made his secretary write it for him and he just signed it! A bit lazy, but I guess it was faster that way, so ah well. :)
