Doing the Martin Shuffle (with your iPod)

Doing the Martin Shuffle (with your iPod): "Now on your iPod, suppose you want to find something. To make it concrete, suppose you want to find Something. First you listen to the current song long enough to identify it. If it is alphabeticly close (say, Someone to Watch Over Me or Summertime) you press the 'next' or 'previous' song button in sequential (non-shuffle) mode until you arrive at your target. If the current song is far away (say, Funkytown) you go into shuffle mode and hit the 'next' button (thereby randomly jumping to another song) until you do get close; then switch to non-shuffle mode."
