- David Bowie
- It must be a lonely place to be considered David Bowie's worst album by just about everyone, including the artist himself. As the last album before Bowie "rebooted" and formed the band Tin Machine, "N

Gimme Fiction by Spoon is a terrific album by an Austin band that I was lucky enough to catch on an Austin radio station during a Christmas visit.

The Secret Machines' inaugural album, Now Here is Nowhere is both old and new in its sonic assault. The trio's surprisingly big sound evokes Pink Floyd (without ever sounding like any Pink

iPhone OS 3.0: Searching with Spotlight
Thursday, June 18th, 2009 at 9:00 AM - by Jeff Gamet
One of the new features in iPhone OS 3.0 that should make finding things on your iPhone or iPod touch easier is Spotlight. It's easy to use, and while Apple worked to make the system-wide search feature easy to use, most new users have to spend a little time searching for Spotlight before they can looking for files and songs on their device.
To access Spotlight on the iPhone or iPod touch, swipe once to the right from the first Home screen. You can also tap the Home button once from the first Home screen to get at Spotlight. Search results start appearing as you type, so in many cases you'll be able to find what you need with only a key taps.
iPhone OS 3.0's search feature
Flicking up or down on the results list hides the keyboard so you can scroll through long search lists. Just tap a result to jump right to the item.
Spotlight searching on the iPhone and iPod touch can find email messages, songs and videos, events, contacts, notes, and file names. It doesn't, however, look inside files like PDFs for content.
Flick up or down to scroll through search results
Spotlight searching is available with iPhone OS 3.0, which is free a free upgrade for iPhone owners, or US$9.95 for iPod touch owners. For information on preparing for the update, check out TMO's iPhone OS 3.0 Upgrade Guide.
