Geek Out: What's Your Favorite New iPod Nano Color?
After a whirlwind day of Apple treats, what I'm left with is thoughts of a new iPod Nano swirling in my head. For $149, I can totally afford to get a new Nano for working out — the Nike+, hot new body shape, and Genius feature on iTunes 8 totally make it worth it.
But you know what I'm really drooling over?
Apple's Let's Rock Event Updates
New iPod Nano's and Touches and iTunes oh my! As you can probably tell, I'm still getting over all of the exciting Apple announcements from the Let's Rock event here in San Francisco yesterday. But what about the minor details, and more importantly, the downloads?
Apple's TV Ad For the New and Improved Nano
What's a new Apple product without a catchy new commercial right? Thankfully, I had a decent seat at the Let's Rock Apple event this morn so I was able to catch the colorful iPod Nano ad in its entirety. Love the splattered Apple at the end and the background tunes, but I'd have to say the showstopper had to be Jack Johnson performing three songs after all the big announcements.

Song of the Day: "Let It Rock" by Kevin Rudolf and Lil Wayne
I try to keep an eye on the iTunes store top songs list and I've noticed that a duet by Kevin Rudolf and Lil Wayne called "Let it Rock" has been hovering around the top 12. For those of you who aren't familiar, Rudolf is a producer/guitar player-turned-singer (for this single) who's credited on an array of pop songs, like Nelly Furtado's "Say It Right."
"Let It Rock" is super catchy and (almost) makes me feel like I should go for a run.
A Wii Problem: Can Alec Baldwin Go From Actor to Governor?
Minnesota has Al Franken for senator, so why can't Ohio get Alec Baldwin to run for governor? The timing is perfect. The 51-year-old actor has already announced his plans to retire from acting after 30 Rock wraps up in 2012, and he hasn't exactly been shy about voicing his political ambition.
3 Noise Canceling Headphones Priced Low to High
Summer travel means you'll probably be heading out in one of three ways: planes, trains, or automobiles! Of course, these methods of transportation will get you where you need to go pretty quickly, but boy, can they be noisy.

Inspired, I set out to find some similar looks.
