By the light of lamp I’ll sit to type
My notes on tab at my side
I don’t see the sun much these days
Fluorescent tan covers my hide

How much impact shall I have this time?
My goal today is to reach the deadline
I write between the lines, I deal with fantasy, I report the facts
Give them to me, please

Ham and egg salad on white bread gives me company on nights like this
Pack of mentholated cigarettes keeps my air nice and thick
When I write, words flow like coins from a candy box
Get out of my way, I’ve got something to say

The pulse is beating louder now, the pulse is beating louder now
The cramps in my hands grow more intense with each
Tik, tik, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap on the keys
My social life is at an end, so it seems to be

Why don’t I just trample on your lawn today?
I’ll take the skies of blue and turn ’em … skies of gray
I write between the lines, I deal with fantasy, I am the pressman
Acknowledge me

Mother always told, “Never stay too far from home”
The little lady said, “Boy, you’ll never have to be alone
‘Cause you build with fountain pen
You create the memory stain, you are the pressman
Stand up straight, boy”

]]> iPhone trick: How to listen to YouTube videos while multitasking or locked screen https://blog.webjournalist.org/2012/07/15/iphone-trick-how-to-listen-to-youtube-videos-while-multitasking-or-locked-screen/ https://blog.webjournalist.org/2012/07/15/iphone-trick-how-to-listen-to-youtube-videos-while-multitasking-or-locked-screen/#comments Sun, 15 Jul 2012 23:38:33 +0000 http://blog.webjournalist.org/?p=1931 UPDATE: With YouTube no longer being part of iOS’ core, this trick no longer works in iOS 6.

I accidentally found this trick earlier today and I thought it was worth sharing… I’m not sure if it’s common knowledge. (NOTE: I do see there are some older posts about this, but it was new to me and maybe you.)

Basically, with this trick, you can continue listening to a YouTube video via your iOS device even though you “quit” the app, are in another app or have shut off or locked your screen.

Here’s a how-to video:

Step-by-step instructions:
1. Launch the YouTube App and play a song.

2. Quit the app by click on the home button.

3. Lock your phone.

4. Double click on your home button.

5. Press play and enjoy the music!

Bonus tips:
– Also, make sure you do Step 2 by clicking the home button. That want, when you unlock your phone, you can jump into any other app and multitask while jamming.

– You can create a playlist via YouTube… but, in some tests, it didn’t automatically go to the next song. You have to skip to next song before current song stops.

This is the poor man’s Spotify… Hope you find it useful.

The future is here! Yet I don’t own a light cycle… well, at least I can rock out like I have one. Please indulge my inner geek with this post because it’s freakin’ awesome.

During last year’s ComiCon, Disney released footage of the sequel to one of the all-time computer geek films: Tron. The sequel is call Tron Legacy.

And I have been rocking out to Daft Punk’s new theme song.

Check it out and welcome the future! Or whatever.
