Good website for musicians…
Some of you may have heard of Project Gutenberg. Basically, it’s a place where classic literature is posted, for free — because the copyright has expired, it’s totally above board!

Why is Blogger either always down, slow, or having trouble? — suddenly all my posts seem to have disappeared! I’m sure they’ll come back (I hope) but this is stupid! I think I’m going to write my own system…
