It's the time of year when I run out of material, which explains yesterday's list of libraries where you can find my book. I know, pretty lame.

I do have a few things on which I'm working, but I'm mostly concentrating my energies these days on my annual winter depression. This year's is going pretty well, and we're projecting that I should enter the bottommost level of despair during the first week of February.

So, here's another list, this one of the hundred most-played songs that were downloaded during 2005.
