TMBG outdid themselves on their album Apollo 18 by including a blast of fleeting songs called “Fingertips”… five-to-ten-second hooks that you can’t get out of your head.

Similarly, my blog’s Fingertips will be a list of miscellaneous links and interesting trivia that I found worthy of sharing.

For example:

What may be the most creative work inspired by Winter 2010 so far: Optimus Ice Sculpture.

Got the idea?
