The Evolution of Music Online (great VDO by PBS)

Tuesday, January 24th, 2012

Growing up in the 80s and 90s in Malaysia I was only exposed to the hottest and best selling artists in the world – Michael Jackson, Milli Vanilli, Guns and Roses, and Green Day … and even then, I couldn’t keep up with the latest music. In today’s expanded world there is something new being released everyday! It’s impossible to keep up! This video is a great piece on the evolution of music online – the creators and the curators. Now, time to get back to listening to The Drums, Cystal Castles, Ok Go and Metronomy!

Which platform are you?

Thursday, January 12th, 2012

Bob Jeffrey has been busy today at CES! In an episode of Worldmakers (see below post for more info) here he is talking to Dave Madden of Electronic Arts. Being a gamer myself I’m a huge fan of EA and its interesting to see how they are shifting their business to other less ‘gaming’ platforms (Android, iPhone). It’s also great how users of different platforms can connect and interact with each other on the same game! Exciting stuff!
