Top Picks of the Day - December 17th, 2010

Song: Lil Wayne - 6'7'' The return of the self-proclaimed greatest rapper alive. This hard hitting track features Cory Gunz and will be the first single from the long awaited Carter 4 due out in February (supposedly). Welcome back Wayne, and to put it in his own words, he "got through that sentence like a subject and a predicate."

News: Larry Flint seems to have an information addiction far superior to mine. I know that most would consider him less than noble given his past but I have to commend him for his undying efforts, and money, put towards facilitating democracy a la data. Viva Wikileaks Mr. Flint!

Websites: For all my fellow social network fiends, here is a cool tool I stumbled across called Ping.fm. You can update all of your social networks whenever needed. Its also free! Its like crack without the whole money thing.  

TV Series: I think I might take this out of the blog until I move on to a new show. What do you think?

Video: Sledding behind a fighter jet. Epic.

Top Picks of the Day - December 16th, 2010

Good afternoon peoples. Is anyone else thirsty? I think tonight will be a World of Beer night. Anyway, today's Top Picks sort of took on a Wikileaks theme. This was not really intentional, but it seems that is is nearly impossible for a info-junkie to escape the 'Leaks. Enjoy!  

Song: Savoy - Intro. "Music. Automatic." I am reeling in my anticipation for up-and-ragers Papadosio to come into my hometown and blow the doors off the newly renovated Hooligans Bar. Even though Savoy wins the song of the day with this hard hitting mix of dirty synths and scattered snares, the track is really serving to get me jazzed up about the show Saturday night.  

News: Irony in a jar. Sweden exposed doing some sketchy stuff with the US. Kicker: via Wikileaks.

Websites: Sowhyiswikileaksagoodthingagain.com. If you are not a hopeless addicted news junkie like myself, this is a great site for Wikileaks cliff notes.

TV Series: Boardwalk Empire. Getting there...

Video: Wikirebels. A very well done and timely documentary on the Wikileaks history and rise to infamy.  Part 1  Part 2 Part 3  Part 4
