Listening to oldskool?

By EntertainmentNo Comments

Ever wish you were back to the days when you could just throw on the Ol’ Gramophone and listen to some tunes. Now you can, and even play music from your iPod on it.

Yes it’s true, Designed by the Cucumber Lab the CL Sound Machine is a sound projecting music machine with a place to stash 12 bottles of wine.

Thanks for the tip, Olli!

Netvibes to support podcasts

By Blogs & PodcastsNo Comments

Netvibes podcast feature

Netvibes offers a very nice user interface for listening new podcasts. All subscribed podcasts appear in a basic rss-feed form, but there are two buttons for each entry: “listen” and “download”.

Basically you can stream every podcast which sounds interesting before downloading it. As I’ve subscribed to nearly 30 different podcasts, it took all my bandwidth to download all the new casts everytime I opened iTunes. I’m more than happy to select the best mixes using this interface and leaving iTunes just for my music library.

Thoughts about the climate change.

By Civilian lifeNo Comments

I guess (or hope) everyone’s already aware of the climate change report which was published yesterday. The panel concluded that it was at least 90% certain that human emissions of greenhouse gases rather than natural variations are warming the planet’s surface.

So we should act.

But doesn’t it feel a bit odd to buy a energy light saving light bulb when currently there are over 2500 coal mines in China and dozens (or even hundreds) more are being built every year?

No wonder people are thinking that the actions of one individual do not count.

But it’s worth remembering that even though you’re thinking your actions won’t count, it still is a bigger bad when you won’t do what you easily COULD do.

Selection of reactions to the climate change report.
