I don’t think i’ll be doing this often but i need to do this track justice. Insane remix of an already insane track. Check out Illogic’s album titled Diabolic Fun.

Working for a company that is directly affected by the current recession and living in a city where its being said that 1 out of every 5 person will be directly affected by it, I’ve noticed a great augmentation of activity on Linked In. While majors changes have affected most companies out there, people getting laid off or changing job, the networking site is now more popular then ever.

With uncertainty for mostly everybody regarding their jobs, everybody wants to keep in touch with those who moved on or are have fallen victim to the job cuts enforced by these difficult economic times, business contacts and others.

It would be interesting to see how much of a popularity gain Linked In got in the last couple of months.

Even if my field of expertise is technology, i usually find myself hooked on documentary or web pages explaining something i have little to no knowledge of.

Looking forward to get my hands on one of those. It’s a sport that I’ve been wanting to try for a while. This thing will set you back $1000 US but seems to be quite outstanding. Stupid recession ;)

Not to long ago, Reks, a MC from the Showoff Records crew released a follow up to his acclaimed album Grey Hairs titled More Grey Hairs.
