Although hilarious, this video does touch on a great point, “Where are we heading as humans?” Social apps like Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and even Linkedin have changed how we communicate. Many people think it’s the death of the human race as we know it. Of course, many said the same thing when televisions and telephones were invented.
In the end, it’s all communication, and whether it’s done in the “Twittersphere” or over a hand written letter, humans have been communicating for tens of thousands of years. I doubt this is the end of humanity because of some little blue bird. The banks on Wall Street will do more damage in the long run.
Yes, iPhone/iPod bands. There are a series of apps one can download from the iTunes App Store that can turn anyone into a rocker. Well, I wouldn’t say anyone, some musical talent is needed.

I’m sure most of you have heard about the big Tier 1 networks whining about people hogging connection speeds with file sharing and video watching. With that said, why did Comcast announce that they will be coming out with speeds of 100 Mbps by 2010? If you’re going to charge more for speed, why do I want a fast connection. It’s like giving someone who has a spending problem a Platinum credit card.
