“These days, of course, most people working corporate jobs have smart phones. But while it would seem a personal smart phone would be a person needed to set him/herself free, the fact is the devices can both alleviate your sense of isolation and exacerbate it. A Goldman Sachs analyst said she has become troublingly dependent on her smart phone, which she uses for email, G-chat, Twitter and Facebook.

‘It’s getting bad,’ the 27-year-old said. ‘I sit at my desk on my iPhone instead of with my hands on my keyboard. It’s bad, but it’s my only portal to the outside world.’”

Perhaps the anonymous 27-year-old Goldman Sachs slave should look to Rahul Kamath, who works on the trading floor for the Japanese bank Nomura and doesn’t have time for such dilly-dallying in his work day, for guidance. “It is a sacrifice,” he said, “but here’s the thing: I’m getting paid to be there.”

This is going to be really self-indulgent and snobby but carrying on my from my previous post I really need to vent about some people in my radio journalism class/all my friggen journalism classes. Yeah, it’s a second year subject and I’m a third year but I wasn’t this fucking naive last year.

Joke post right?

The Google News front page is a kind of air-traffic-control center for the movement of stories across the world’s media, in real time. “Usually, you see essentially the same approach taken by a thousand publications at the same time,” [Krisha Bharat, Google News’ creator] told me. “Once something has been observed, nearly everyone says approximately the same thing.” He didn’t mean that the publications were linking to one another or syndicating their stories. Rather, their conventions and instincts made them all emphasize the same things. This could be reassuring, in indicating some consensus on what the “important” stories were. But Bharat said it also indicated a faddishness of coverage—when Michael Jackson dies, other things cease to matter—and a redundancy that journalism could no longer afford. “It makes you wonder, is there a better way?” he asked. “Why is it that a thousand people come up with approximately the same reading of matters? Why couldn’t there be five readings? And meanwhile use that energy to observe something else, equally important, that is currently being neglected.” He said this was not a purely theoretical question. “I believe the news industry is finding that it will not be able to sustain producing highly similar articles.”

Akon “Beautiful” - Cardinal Burns do a hilarious sketch that uses this song to perfection.

Major Lazer “Pon De Floor” - DANCING. MANIA. Daggering in the Hi-Fi bar during a weekend night? Don’t mind if I do.

Ludacris “Get Back” - Arj uses this at the end of his show, sure Tropic Thunder used this song first but it’s STILL. EPIC.

I’m pretty sure Rick Ross’ “Hustlin’” was all that ran through my head through the festival.

Well that and Die Roten Punkte’s “Second Best Friend” for a little while at the end. And Tim Vine’s “Is It A Banana or Is It A Torch?” at the start.

It is with great disappointment that I announce that Statusly has been removed from the Vancouver’s Bootup Labs Startup Accelerator.

Bootup Labs seemed to be an excellent opportunity. Come last fall Steven and I were looking around at all these different seed accelerator/startup-incubator…
