Snow Day!


I haven't posted in a couple of days, but I wanted to put up this pic because the weather had turned so quickly! It was almost 70F on Saturday, and this is what it looked like the next day!

Oh well, it gave me time to finish babysitting iTunes so it wouldn't crash while loading the rest of my mp3s. I've also started ripping the audiobooks that I've started getting from the library.

I was disapointed that iTunes has a section in its library for Audiobooks, but you can't tell it to put things there. This guide was pretty handy for describing how to get around this, although what I ended up doing was a little simpler than what is described.

I found that it was too hard to leave all the tracks separated, and it cluttered up iTunes too much. I also didn't like having one GIANT mp3 for the entire book. So I use iTunes "Join Tracks" feature, but I don't bother joining all the discs together, as is described in the guide. I end up with one mp3 per disk, and it shows up under Audiobooks. Perfect.
