Grizzly Bear performed a new song called “Two Weeks” last night on Letterman.

EDIT: Apparently the video was taken down. I’ll keep an eye out for another, but I’ll post the audio and you can download the MP3 here.

This demo of the new Google interface was posted today on TechCrunch. Google is going to start allowing users to vote up search results and post comments with linked user names on them. The popular comments will rise to the top of the comments like on digg or reddit. I had no idea Google was planning to ’socialize’ Google, but these plans have been under development for nearly a year supposedly. This is pretty significant because key web 2.0 concepts will be introduced to the masses.

EDIT: Apparently Google acquired Digg for around $200 million this week. I’m anxious to see how this plays out.

Will Champion, the drummer for Coldplay, sings on this new song which was just released on the band’s website for download.

Chevy Chase and Paul Simon unintentionally star in Ratatat’s latest video for “Flynn” from LP3.

I woke up today excited to finally install the new iPhone update, but Apple and AT&T completely botched their launch day when their authentication servers crashed around 9AM. A few hours and a couple thousand flame posts later, they finally came back up and everyone was a happy customer again.

I installed a couple apps, but Facebook, Loopt, Twitterific, and Remote are my favorite apps so far.

I predict that Loopt is going to be HUGE once school starts up again and college kids want to know where their friends are and stuff like that. The days of texting your friends to ask what they are doing will probably come to an end with apps like Loopt where you can just see on a map where your friends are on GPS or triangulation.

The Facebook app is pretty awesome as well. It lets you Facebook chat and even call your friends directly from the app instead of through your contacts. I don’t think I’ll ever have to manually insert a phone number into that contacts list again since the Facebook app will update automatically.

Twitterific is fun if you use Twitter. It beats using the mobile version in Safari, but you have to pay for the premium version to really customize it to your liking.

I also really like Remote, an app that lets you control your iTunes from your iPhone over WiFi. Functionality like this is long overdue. This might give me a reason to cleanup and organize my playlists.

A cool new video for “Gamma Ray” from Beck’s Modern Guilt.

Ratatat’s LP3 is another album that came out today that I’ve been anticipating for a while.

I’ve been listening to Fleet Foxes’ self-titled debut all summer and this video is tight.
