The SPIN magazine article is out now too, it's in the issue with Green Day on the cover. I kinda hate the photo of me (but I hate all photos of me, so it's got nothing to do with Reuben Cox), but Jon Caramanica's article about mp3 blogs is by far the best one to date.

Digable Planets/"Blowout Comb" – Now that the jazz-influenced rap trio has reunited and will headline Chicago's Lollapalooza festival, it's time to dust off this 1994 album, which, in retrospect, was waaaay ahead of its time. The Planets got out of beatnik mode and started messing with some harder beats, and the results are funkier and a little angrier than the group's debut, Reachin'.
www.fluxblog.org – At this MP3 blog, art begets art. Cartoonist John Cei Douglas interprets Spoon's "The Two Sides of Monsieur Valentine" in graphic short story form. "Valentine," by the way, is one of several sweeping, epic rock songs on the Austin band's latest, Gimme Fiction, due Tuesday.
Lil' Jon and the East Side Boyz, "Crunk Juice" (expanded edition) – The bonus CD features two notable mixes of "What U Gon' Do:" a version with reggaeton stars Daddy Yankee and Pitbull and one with dancehall rappers Elephant Man and Lady Saw. Also, you get Lil' Jon's remix of Daddy Yankee's "Gasolina," which is, in case you didn't know, the party jam of the year.

Why Lindsay Buckingham, why now? Did I miss an explanation post?
Over the past few months I have become fascinated by Lindsey Buckingham and Fleetwood Mac. I had always liked their music but for whatever reason this stuff has become a lot more interesting and resonant for me recently...Also, I figured that there were probably a significant number of readers who either were not very aware of Lindsey’s music or hadn’t given it much thought.

it was a bulletin-board style site similar to (but much uglier than) ILX for nerds to argue about 90s indie rock (Pavement, primarily). Morbz, Johnny Fever, and several other ILXors gradually migrated over here

I posted on Barbelith too (though not that much), and I've always been far from a goth. I assume Invisibles fans were probably more likely to be ravers, like the protagonists?
