Out here in the Bay Area we have a lot of excellent hip hop acts such as The Living Legends, Zion-I, and The Hieroglyphics to name a few. 

I’m always searching for a new sound and I have found a new favorite.  Plan-B is an up-and-coming GRIME artist based out of the UK, and judging by this track, he’s going to get big. 

 

MP3: “More Is Enough (feat. Plan B)” – Epic Man ((highly recommended))

Take Music off Your iPod and Share it with Everyone August 18, 2006

For the longest time, I have searched for a way to easily take songs off my iPod and put them on my computer.  I found this program recently and it has been working great for me!

Sharepod is a program that works on both Mac and PC iPod’s and runs directly on the iPod rather than on your computer.  The best part is, there is no need to install anything, just Double Click on the Sharepod icon, and choose the music you want!

It works just like iTunes allowing you to export playlists and whole albums.  Oh, did I mention it is 100% FREE! 

All you need to do is download it from here and than add the Sharepod .exe icon file into your iPod. 

For PC’s go to:

My Computer  than there should be a drive called

“John Doe’s iPOD”

Just copy the file into “John Doe’s iPOD” and away you go!

Get on the Carbon Wagon Before it’s too Late! August 18, 2006

 The worlds leading Carbon Fibre manufacture Toray, has announced a massive deal with Boeing for the new 787 Dreamliner.  Carbon is one of the lightest materials known to man and now it will be used for airplanes to increase fuel efficiency. 

With only a few major companies that manufacture carbon, the prices have been shooting up.  Anyone who is looking for a new carbon bike might want to get one before the prices shoot up.  Not a bad industry to invest in considering the growing prices.

Dude, Your Dell is on Fire! August 18, 2006

Wonder why Dell is recalling 4.1 million battery’s?  Maybe because they have the off chance of melting through your laptop.  Although there haven’t been too many cases of this happening, I wouldn’t want to spend $1,000+ on a laptop to find out that it is a possibly walking time bomb.

Sony is the manufacture of these little walking bombs so they get to bear the $400+ million cost it will take to replace all the battery’s. 

Mac’s seem to look better every day.

This is a very cool new tool developed after Facebook released their API developer code.  This handy little app uses Google Earth to map and pinpoint all your friends within the US.     

All you need to do is sign into your Facebook account here and watch the magic unfold!

Coming soon, you will be able to attach your iPod video to a portable 8″ screen!

The iFlip has a 480-by-234-pixel screen and operates about five hours on one charge. It will cost $200 and will run for about 5 hours on a full chare.

Hopefully this sceen doesn’t distort the video’s too much by stretching them to fit the screen!

A new program designed for the new Mac Intel computers lets Mac users open Windows built applications on theier mac without having Windows installed.  Pretty cool considering that you can run games and apps that are only for Windows easily on a Mac without having to use Boot Camp or Parallels.  

  • Do out in Mid-August, the program will be the envy of all Mac Users.
