Choose Baghdad, Iraq is your city for Spicegirls... →
The Spicegirls website has created a vote-poll style thing to vote for a city for them to play in. Everyone vote for Baghdad, Iraq (make sure the B is upper-case), you have to input an email, but don’t worry you can just put a fake one as you do not need to confirm it.
Why 99¢ Per Song Is A Good Idea
So I was reading a little about “Digital music singles flex muscles, kick sand on antiquated album” and how the record companies are pushing Apple for variable pricing on individual track pricing, and something occurred to me.

The results are fantastic: my 1.66GHz intel mini now converts iPod/iTunes-ready video in faster than double realtime. Whereas a two-hour movie in AVI format took 3-4 hours to convert, it now takes […]
