Some music trends
I was interested to see which music website or web application was the most popular out of all my current favourites: Is blip.fm slowly losing the battle? I also started researching DJ Shadow, apparently he’s quite big in Poland — I had no idea! Poszanowanie!

One of the main reasons for this was to provide people with better usability of social networks, enabling them to find existing friends easily on new social platforms and facilitate portable, [...]

Knowing Audiences – Urban Nerds
I recently stepped outside of the Oxford Circus tube station and for some reason a power box fixed to a wall caught my attention. Well actually it was the collage of really cool stickers plastered all over the box that fixed my eyes. One particular one stuck that out was Urban Nerds, what a cool [...]
