hey what's up...

I wonder if this is real....


Btw Google just announced that they are going to come out with their own digital music store...
if it is as good as Android turned out to be then finally there will be some competition to Itunes...
Competition is good...


But the real reason I decided to make a post was to post this...


This one is better though...one kid recreates the whole scene by himself...


BTW to all you wanna be Tony Montana's just remember if you don't have the nightclub, the nice home, the cars, etc., your not Tony, your Hannah.
lol

peace,

4G Iphone




Now for those who didn't get to go to the event or watch the realtime stream of the event here is the basic rundown:
Its is 25% thinner, making it the thinest smartphone on the market.
It has 4x's the pixels on the touchscreen for even better images
It now has an LED flash for photos and 720p 30fps HD video with built in video editing
Apple is releasing an imovie app for high quality editing on the phone itself
They have added a gyroscope to it (all 6 axis of motion detection available) the gaming possibilities are ridiculous for this one.
The new IOS4 OS enables multitasking across the entire range of Idevices including the Ipad etc.
The 3G is no more and the 3GS will take its place at the bottom of the range.
Both the front and the back is made from a special glass that is incredibly strong and will allow signals to pass through the phone without any issues.
The metal band around the sides of the phone (as seen in the Gizmodo video) is made from a special stainless steel that not only holds the components of the phone but also acts as an antenna.
They are now using the same processor that comes in the Ipad making the Iphone more powerful AND better on battery life.
The battery now takes up most of the internals (larger battery) increasing the battery life enormously.
And my favourite announcement is that once you purchase something on any of your Idevices you now can download the same product on your other Idevices for free. And they all will wirelessly sync. This means you can buy an Ibook on your Ipad and read part of it on one device then seamlessly continue reading it another one.
My second favourite announcement is that Apple is fully supporting html5 and you can now develop apps in html5.
Last but not least I can't forget about the forward facing camera or the new app that makes video calls possible (initially though wi-fi)...think scype on steroids...
The 4G will begin shipping later this month, in the US, UK and the rest of their primary Markets.
Canada and the secondary markets will start getting their's in July, the rest of the planet should be able to get their hands on one by September.
This thing is really going to be a game changer....I can't wait for my contract to end so I can upgrade to one.
Bonus:
did you know there was a World Championships for pole dancing?



last years champ apparently got a job with cirque de solliel...real talk.
peace,
One Love

M.I.A. versus Lynn Hirschberg


News on my mind...it's late at night...I'm hot and tired.  Too much facebook/ twitter has made me lose my writing skills- but here it is!

Lynn Hirschberg wrote a not so nice article about M.I.A. basically highlighting what I've kind of always thought about her...

M.I.A. retaliates by tweeting the journalist's phone number as if it were her own.

A few people bash Diplo as outing M.I.A. and saying he's a bitter ex-boyfriend.  I disagree, although he probably shouldn't have been so open.

Pharrell said Lynn Hirschberg is OG...that's funny. 

A lot of ppl have been commenting about M.I.A. eating truffle fries.  From what I can tell she seems ashamed...hahaha.  You know what, if you like truffle fries don't be ashamed. Also, they're not that bourgeois anyways. 

Quite frankly, I think Lynn did great journalism but the article was mind-numbing. 

I think twittering the phone number was lame and makes M.I.A. look really, really juvenile.  The media twists and contorts- get a publicist.  Learn how to soundbyte.  Duh.

M.I.A. is engaged to a very, very wealthy man and has money herself.  Instead of promoting her politics through her music, twitter, and videos she should take her money and put it into the cause.  Because guess what, some hipster in Brooklyn doesn't give a shit about Sri Lanka.  All she does is make the issue a novelty and make violence/ terrorism seem chic.  Please.
